MEET SOME CAT
FINANCIAL CUSTOMERS

JOSLIN CONSTRUCTION // Like many in the Houston, Texas, area, this large civil site subcontractor felt the effects of Hurricane Harvey’s wrath. Thankfully, Cat Financial was able to respond “quickly and nimbly” to help Joslin withstand the challenges.

J.A. BEAUDOIN CONSTRUCTION LTD // This Montreal-based firm prefers working with a financial partner who understands equipment just as well as interest rates. Cat Financial’s knowledge of J.A. Beaudoin’s fleet and business goals makes financing easy.

KANAWHA STONE COMPANY // This family-owned business based in West Virginia is in its second generation working with Cat Financial. It’s a long-term relationship built on a “partnering and supportive approach” that takes into account business needs, constraints and risks.

KIEWIT CONSTRUCTION // “Where there’s Kiewit, there’s Caterpillar.” This Cat Financial customer operates one of the largest privately owned fleets of Cat equipment in the U.S. and relies on partnerships to keep every job running efficiently.

LASER GRADING & DEVELOPMENT // See how we helped a new business owner survive and thrive through an economic downturn. Kevin Manning bought Laser Grading & Development at the “worst possible time” — in the heart of the Great Recession. He had relationships with local lenders, but when he needed new equipment during the downturn, they weren’t able to meet his requirements. We were. Kevin credits much of Laser Grading’s success to our flexibility, support and competitive rates.

HANK'S EXCAVATING & LANDSCAPING // Discover why the owner of this well-established firm says “no one compares” to Cat Financial. In business for more than 40 years, Hank Rohwedder has great relationships with banks and other financial institutions, yet he still describes Cat Financial as “hard to beat.” At a time he needed to upgrade its fleet, we doubled his line of credit so he could acquire the additional equipment required — and we’ve been there through the years to help his company diversify and grow.

TIFFANY CONSTRUCTION // Explore how our willingness to be flexible helped this Arizona business through a tough spot. When Tiffany Construction found itself low on cash, with new projects months rather than weeks out, treasurer Lyndon Larson came to talk to us. We listened and stepped up to help, refinancing Tiffany’s debt and providing a line of credit for operating expenses — going “above and beyond” what other lenders would do.

FLORIDA MARINE TRANSPORTERS // Learn how our understanding of a unique industry supported this company’s aggressive growth. Since 1993, this inland waterway transport company has grown from seven vessels to nearly 300. We’ve provided support all along the journey — financing everything from parts transactions, to repowers of older boats, to construction of new vessels. We were there when growth slowed, too. Compared to other lenders, Florida Marine Transporters says we’re “more patient and more understanding that business is cyclical and growth is not always linear.”
