GE Capital Commercial Distribution Finance (CDF) will offer a NATDA show special for all orders booked at the 2011 NATDA Trade Show. The offer will be valid only during the three show days for dealers in attendance. The program is limited to manufacturers and dealers active with the CDF STRATEGIC INDUSTRIES TRAILER GROUP only. It will extend suppliers’ standard financing terms by 60 days; this includes dealers in the light and medium duty enclosed cargo, open utility, dump, auto hauler and horse-livestock trailers. This program is only available at the 2011 NATDA Trade Show and is only available for dealers in attendance at the show.
GE will have staff on site for dealers wanting to take advantage of the show special. GE has made dealer set-up very easy. For credit lines up to $300,000 GE has implemented a streamlined approval process. Trailer dealers will be able to apply with GE at the show, and if approved will be eligible for the +60 program.
GE will host a free workshop and seminar on its new floor plan program on Thursday morning, Sept. 8, at the 2011 NATDA Trade Show. The class will teach dealers about floor plan finance, inventory turns, what to expect from their lender, when to turn aged inventory back to cash and online management tools for inventory control. GE will make sure dealers understand the new GE programs and how to make them work for their dealership.
