Summary
As a first-time dealership buyer, Cody Anderlini needed a financing partner capable of structuring a complex acquisition package while providing the guidance and flexibility required to navigate the purchase process. Throughout his career, he had been told that buying a franchise store was “next to impossible,” that he was “too young to be approved,” and that ownership was a goal that would have to wait for years. KeyBank Dealer Finance took a different view.
Working closely with Anderlini and his advisors, KeyBank structured a customized financing solution for the acquisition of the CDJR franchise (now Anderlini CDJR), in Angola, Indiana, combining floorplan financing, real estate financing, and term debt into a comprehensive package tailored to the transaction. KeyBank served as a strategic partner throughout the process, helping navigate the complexities of a first acquisition while maintaining a solutions-oriented approach from initial discussions through closing.
“Kevin Ringenberg [KeyBank, Great Lakes Region Manager, Dealer Services] tuned out the noise, believed in me, and helped navigate my first of many acquisitions to come,” said Anderlini. “From the very beginning, through closing, and even now post-close, I could not ask for a better banking partner.”
In addition to acquisition financing, KeyBank provided depository, treasury management, and other banking services to support the dealership’s long-term operational needs.
“The entire KeyBank team, from customer service to executives at corporate, have been open-minded, solution-focused, technologically progressive, and instrumental in my team and its success,” Anderlini shared.
Today, at age 35, Anderlini is one of the youngest first-generation Stellantis dealer in the country. His successful acquisition demonstrates how KeyBank’s industry expertise, relationship-driven service, and willingness to see opportunity where others see obstacles can help emerging automotive entrepreneurs achieve ambitious ownership goals and build a foundation for future expansion.
