$36 Million Manufacturer Sale-Leaseback Recapitalization
Commercial Funding Partners closed a $36 million sale-leaseback recapitalization for a Midwest manufacturer, structured as a 60-month non-tax lease.

DRAPER, Utah – Commercial Funding Partners recently closed a $36 million sale-leaseback recapitalization for a Midwest manufacturer, structured as a 60-month non-tax lease.
The transaction recapitalized the manufacturer’s entire facility and required a financing structure that matched the operating reality of the business, not just a single equipment quote. Commercial Funding Partners moved the transaction from structure to funding in less than three weeks while coordinating the diligence required for a large, competitive transaction.
The transaction reflects Commercial Funding Partners’ ability to support established operating companies with larger, more complex commercial-finance needs as its funding capabilities continue to increase in a challenging market.
For manufacturers, distributors, and industrial operators, the practical lesson is straightforward: a major recapitalization, sale-leaseback, or equipment-backed liquidity need should be structured before purchase timing, collateral review, and bank constraints narrow the options.
Commercial Funding Partners works with established companies, banks, brokers, vendors, consultants, and advisors on equipment financing, sale-leaseback, tax-lease, non-tax lease, progress-funding, and growth-capital situations where a standard financing path may be too narrow.
When This Structure May Fit
- A company has meaningful operating assets and needs liquidity without interrupting operations.
- The financing need is too large, fast-moving, or collateral-intensive for a narrow quote process.
- Purchase timing, appraisal work, documentation, and lender fit need to be coordinated together.
