POST ROAD EQUIPMENT FINANCE PROVIDES $25 MILLION LEASE FACILITY TO GLOBAL INDUSTRIAL STORAGE AND AUTOMATION PROVIDER

Norwalk, CT – May 11, 2026 – Post Road Equipment Finance (“PREF”) is pleased to announce the successful closing of a $25 million tax lease facility for a leading global manufacturer of industrial warehouse storage systems and automation solutions. Headquartered in Europe and backed by a premier private equity sponsor, the company serves a broad range of industries including logistics, manufacturing, retail, food and beverage, and e-commerce through a diversified, global customer base.

The financing will support the buildout of the company’s first U.S. manufacturing facility, including advanced production lines and automation-related infrastructure critical to the expansion of its North American operations. The new facility is expected to significantly enhance production capacity, reduce lead times for customers, and support growing demand for next-generation warehouse automation and high-density storage solutions across the U.S. market.

PREF structured a customized tax lease solution that includes progress funding throughout the construction and installation process, enabling the customer to efficiently execute a large-scale, multi-phase international expansion initiative. The transaction involves extensive coordination across multiple jurisdictions, vendors, and legal teams over the course of a twelve-month project timeline.

Peter Carpenter, Managing Director at Post Road Equipment Finance, commented, “This was an incredibly rewarding transaction to be a part of and a great example of Post Road’s ability to execute on complex deals with an international dimension. Our teams worked collaboratively for eight months alongside the customer and their vendors to deliver a tailored capital solution that supports the company’s long-term strategic growth plans. We are proud to be selected as a financing partner on such an important initiative and look forward to continuing to build upon this relationship in the years ahead.”
