CHICAGO, IL ― GE Capital's Commercial Distribution Finance (CDF) business today announced its plans to exhibit at the inaugural American International Motorcycle Expo (commonly called AIMExpo), which kicks off Oct. 16th in Orlando, FL. Billed as the motorsports industry's first combination trade and consumer event in North America, it's an opportunity to meet with the manufacturers and dealers that are at the heart of the business.
"We're upbeat about what's happening in the industry now," said Sameer Gaur, president of CDF's motorsports group. "We're working every day to help dealers better finance and manage their inventory --- something that's crucial to their success. As part of this effort, we're investing more in our proprietary COMS platform to deliver enhanced account management tools to both dealers and manufacturers."
Gaur will participate in The Industry Round Table Q & A, featuring experts who represent every segment of dealership revenue streams and organized by National Powersports Auctions at 4 PM on Wednesday, Oct. 16.
AIMExpo attendees are invited to visit GE Capital at booth #433 at the Orange County Convention Center. To learn more about the event, go to http://www.aimexpousa.com.
"This event is a great opportunity to interact with others who are as passionate about motorsports as we are," said Sam Yourd, marketing manager of CDF's motorsports group.
For more than 35 years and through all business and economic cycles, CDF has supported the motorsports industry. Inventory financing, also known as floorplan financing, is an important element of a successful manufacturer-lender-dealer business model. Manufacturers can focus on their core product development and production capabilities while dealers can focus on delivering products and services to consumers without having to worry about financing the inventory acquisition.
