Chicago - Commercial Distribution Finance (“CDF"), a business of GE Capital, announced today that Arctic Cat, a leading manufacturer of recreational products, has chosen CDF as an exclusive provider for dealer inventory financing across North America. The financing will consolidate all of ACAT’s North American dealers onto one technology platform and provide them leading edge tools to help manage their businesses.
Chris Eperjesy, CFO at Arctic Cat, said, “We’re consolidating our North American dealer inventory financing under CDF because of their expertise in our industry and their leading technology solutions.”
