Peachtree Group launches equipment finance division
New division offers lease financing between $500K and $10M for 2 to 7 years
Peachtree Group has launched a new equipment finance division to expand its credit capabilities across industries, including commercial real estate and hospitality.
The division is led by veterans Brian Shaughnessy and Roger Johnson, who bring more than six decades of experience in equipment finance, specialty finance and portfolio acquisitions, according to an Oct. 13 Peachtree release. In addition, Peachtree’s new equipment finance division is adding Dennis Shields as senior vice president, who spent 15 years helping build Meridian Leasing.
Atlanta-based Peachtree strengthens its private credit ecosystem by providing clients with tailored solutions for essential-use equipment following the launch, according to the release. The firm plans to use its credit infrastructure and balance sheet to deliver competitive financing while maintaining a relationship-focused approach.
The new platform aims to fill a gap left by large banks retreating from small- and mid-size business lending, offering lease financing from $500,000 to $10 million for terms of two to seven years, according to the release. The division underscores Peachtree’s broader strategy to expand flexible credit offerings, combining deep asset knowledge with execution certainty for clients across multiple sectors.
