“We are honored that JMH Capital trusted Cambridge Savings Bank to build tailored lending solutions that accelerate GWA Auto Parts’ future growth”

After GWA was acquired by JMH Capital Partners, a middle-market private equity firm based in Boston, MA, the auto parts manufacturer was in search of financing to support the growth of the business and the associated working capital needs. The strategic growth plans for the business have added working capital requirements beyond their previous financial institution’s capabilities. As a result, JMH Capital was seeking a banking partner that offered them the flexibility to meet GWA’s significant potential for growth and build on its strong e-commerce presence.

“JMH partnered with GWA to support the human resource needs and capital needs of the business as they navigate the accelerating growth of automotive aftermarket parts sold through e-commerce channels,” said Tatum Bevis, Managing Director at JMH Capital. “Cambridge Savings Bank has supported our efforts to expand GWA’s business from the get-go. Their quick and efficient service delivery positioned GWA to take advantage of future growth opportunities and further establish credibility in the automotive aftermarket category.”
