Launch Dealer Inventory
Financing Program
American Trailer Works (ATW), North America’s largest manufacturer
of utility and cargo trailers, announced an agreement with Northpoint
Commercial Finance to provide an ATW-branded inventory finance
program for its broad network of independent dealers. ATW
manufacturers and markets its products under well-known brand
names including PJ Trailers (PJ), Carry-On Trailer (Carry-On), RC
Trailers (RC) and Middlebury Trailers (MTI). Northpoint Commercial
Finance will be the exclusive inventory finance provider for ATW’s new
branded program.
The program will provide PJ, Carry-On, RC and MTI dealers with a
comprehensive, one-stop solution for inventory financing, also known
as floor plan financing. Under the program, dealers will have dedicated
credit lines with Northpoint Commercial Finance, customized service
and reporting capabilities, and competitive terms that allow them to
manage and grow their businesses effectively. Dealers will benefit
from extended free interest terms and seasonal credit line uplifts. The
program will be supported by online tools allowing dealers to manage
their credit needs anytime, anywhere.

John Burgess, president of ATW’s utility business, said: “We strive
to provide our dealers with products and services that allow them
to compete most effectively in their local markets and grow their
businesses. This financing program demonstrates our commitment to
our independent dealers. Dealers will be able to grow faster and offer
a broad selection of ATW products to consumers.”
“The only place to buy an ATW product is through an independent
dealer or authorized retail outlet” added Bryan Johnson, president
of ATW’s cargo business. “We never compete with our dealers and
always look for ways to expand our services to them. This program will
enable dealers to get access to the credit they need to put products on
their yards that trailer buyers want.”
Dan Radley, president of Northpoint Commercial Finance, stated “Our
relationship with American Trailer Works and their North American
dealer network is very important to us. We are proud to deliver a
stable source of capital for ATW’s dealers to stock, market and sell a
wide variety of ATW products more profitably.”
