Summit places capital for trucking & logistics operators across Connecticut — from Hartford, New Haven, Stamford, Bridgeport to secondary markets. Connecticut middle-market manufacturers and healthcare groups rely on bridge and ABL structures during M&A and equipment cycles.
Freight rates move daily, customers pay on 30–90 day terms, and equipment is the business. Summit places equipment financing across new and used Class 8 trucks, trailers, and reefers — and freight factoring lines that advance against your load broker and shipper invoices within hours of delivery.
