Chicago, IL – Mitsubishi HC Capital America, the largest non-bank, non-captive finance provider in North America with more than $7.5B in owned and managed assets, announces that industry veteran Carl Bretzman has joined the company to manage and grow business development initiatives in its Industrial Finance division.
Located in Illinois, Bretzman will focus on creating new partnerships with brokers, captives and other financial organizations, new customer activation, and strengthening existing relationships in North America. He brings more than 30 years of finance and sales experience to his new role as Development Manager.
Bretzman will report to David Sowell, Senior Vice President of Sales, Industrial. “Carl’s experience and success across a number of vertical markets will play a key role in the continued strategic growth of our industrial wholesale business,” said Sowell. “His high energy, communication skills and knowledge of the industry will provide the impetus for growing the relationship-driven business model we employ throughout the company.”
Sowell added that “Continued growth in the industrial marketplace with equipment types such as machine tools, plastic injection molding, fabricating, printing, automation, material handling and other synergistic areas are key target industries for the division.”
“I am delighted to join a company that embodies my philosophy to be a trusted partner and advisor to the customers we serve,” said Bretzman. “Having managed captive, vendor and broker programs over a span of 30 years, the goal is always to provide the best customer service possible.” He added, “Providing expertise and building relationships is tantamount to success, and even more so in the current financial environment.
