The equipment need

A business owner wanted to tap the value of equipment the company owned outright, estimated at more than $229,000, to raise cash.

The goal was to fund the operating cycle without selling strategic assets or relying on a costly bank overdraft.

  • Professional equipment fleet

The support described in the project

Leaseworld arranged the sale of the equipment to a financing partner, followed by its immediate lease back to the company.

The company kept exclusive use of its equipment for the entire term of the contract.

The reported operational outcome

The cash raised gave the company immediate breathing room, with no interruption of activity and no loss of use of the equipment.
