Amur Equipment Finance opened a Philadelphia office as part of a continuing nation-wide growth and expansion effort. The new office will primarily house sales and marketing functions while serving the entire Mid-Atlantic region of the U.S.

Scott Hamburg, AmurEF’s vice president of sales and an industry veteran with more than 25 years of experience, will lead the new regional office and will focus on expanding AmurEF’s current customer base and further developing vendor programs.

In the coming months, AmurEF will be making a strong push to hire additional sales personnel and account managers.

AmurEF selected Philadelphia because it is a major economic hub whose central location and strong equipment finance industry presence make it an ideal site from which to serve new and existing customers.

“We are thrilled to now officially be a part of the Philadelphia business community,” said Michael Karman, AmurEF chief commercial officer. “The multiple business opportunities available in the greater Philadelphia region, combined with the city’s prime location, will help us with our expansion efforts by allowing us to better serve regional customers requiring our comprehensive portfolio of equipment finance solutions.”
