A Business Name Brings Great Value.

A Business Name Brings Great Value

A Business Name Brings Great Value. Our name defines the relationships we create. Find out why!


Ever wonder how you got your name? Truth be told, we never really think about it. But we all know there can be many reasons why your name was chosen for you. And no matter the answer to this question, one thing is certain...Your name will follow you in everything you do. Your name can define who you are and whom you will become.


Let’s Talk Business

  • What does a business name mean?
  • What image or perception comes to mind when you hear that name?
  • Does the name reflect what product or service the business offers?


I bet a lot of top business names are running through your mind right now. Amazon? Verizon? Google? But let’s talk specifically about our name, Tri-Lease. When Tri-Lease was created in 1992, we wanted a name that could start a conversation and hold value in what we offer, a name with meaning. Over the years, Tri-Lease has not only become a symbol of consistency and confidence in the commercial lending marketplace, but it has also become the very essence of who we are.


Understanding Our Name

What I am about to say will make complete sense, and understanding our name will give you even more reason to call us your lending partner of choice. Let me Explain. A triangle has three sides; a tricycle consists of three wheels; A trifecta is when three things happen in a specific order. So, by definition, the prefix “Tri” stands for the number three. Let’s get even more intentional. There are three critical components of every equipment purchase that might require financing.

  1. There is the actual business owner. The one who is investing in the equipment.
  2. There is the equipment supplier. The person or vendor selling the equipment.
  3. Perhaps most importantly, there is the lending partner. The one whose sole responsibility is to bring the buyer and the seller together, helping make the sale move forward.


We have adopted a simple motto over the years: “sometimes the only thing standing in the way of a business owner investing in equipment, and the equipment supplier selling equipment is the proper financing offered by the lending provider.” There is no escaping this concept. Understanding how these three entities connect is paramount to the success of each.


When you choose us as your preferred lending partner, there’s a reason. We understand how vital we are in this process. The Seller, The Buyer, and The Lender. These three relationships define Tri-Lease.
