For over 20 years, Sperry Tents Hamptons has been the trusted retailer for sailcloth tent rentals and other vital rental equipment for luxury events in Long Island, New York. Whether it be a wedding, fundraiser, or other occasion, Sperry Tents Hamptons works closely with customers for their small to large-scale events to deliver not only the best product, but the best customer experience as well.
Although tenting is nothing new in the event rental space, Sperry Tents Hamptons is special in that they own the unique rights to rent the unique Sperry Tent made from genuine sail cloth material and produced in Cape Cod, Massachusetts. With this in mind, and the added demand of high-end clientele in the area, Patrick Lambert, now owner of Sperry Tents Hamptons, found the perfect business to purchase. After most of his career in the financial industry, Patrick decided he wanted to switch from being an investor to being in the seat of the operator. The process of acquiring the business began soon after stumbling across the business and meeting the previous owner.
Referred to by a debt broker, Dennis Wagner, Business Development Officer at FNB Small Business Finance, was the one and only financing partner that Patrick explored. From the initial meeting to closing, Dennis was available, prepared, and supported Patrick with what to expect through every step of the loan process. When conventional loan options didn’t meet Patrick’s specific needs, the SBA 7(a) loan product provided the leverage and competitive rates to meet and also exceed them.
Patrick shares the following about his experience:
As soon as I met Dennis, I knew I would be supported and advocated for during the loan process. To any other business owner looking for long-term financing, Dennis is the one to call!
All of the FNB Small Business Finance team sends well wishes to Patrick and Sperry Tents Hamptons!
