The Company.

Precision Auto Group, a busy auto repair shop, was known for staying ahead of the curve when it comes to vehicle technology. They recognized the landscape was shifting toward electric and hybrid vehicles. Rather than waiting for the market to force their hand, they made the strategic decision to expand their service capabilities to include EV and hybrid maintenance and repair.

The Challenge.

Precision Auto Group had a solid reputation servicing traditional combustion engines. But as more customers traded in their gas-powered cars for EVs and hybrids, Precision Auto Group faced a problem that couldn't be ignored: they didn't have the training, tools, or technicians to work on these vehicles.

Working on electric vehicles is fundamentally different, and so are the safety requirements.

Technicians need certification and hands-on training to legally work on these vehicles.

Working on these vehicles requires expensive specialized tools and safety equipment.

Exisiting team was already fully scheduled with traditional vehicle work.

The Solution.

Expanding into EV and hybrid services wasn't something Precision Auto Group could ease into. The investment had to happen all at once This is when they reached out to Capitalize Funding to explore funding options that could make this possible.

This is how a Working Capital Loan addressed their needs:
