Every great story starts somewhere.
Founded in 1986 in Richmond, VA, CSC Leasing emerged at a time when the business world was undergoing a major transformation. Voice and data technologies were converging, changing the way companies operated. John Corey, specializing in computer leasing, and Tom Cottrell, experienced in telephone sales, recognized the growing need for accessible technology financing. From this vision, CSC Leasing was born.
What began nearly 40 years ago as a small operation has grown into a market leader in equipment and technology leasing. CSC has evolved alongside the industries it serves, supporting a wide range of sectors, including agriculture, food & beverage, healthcare, manufacturing, and technology. With 80 employees and $1 billion in assets under management, CSC continues to call Richmond, VA, its headquarters while serving clients both domestically and abroad.
From its origins as a family business, CSC has always valued relationships. We believe in supporting our clients through the highs and lows of business, building long-term partnerships based on trust. Whether selling door-to-door in the early days or working with our clients face-to-face today, we remain committed to personal connections and helping businesses thrive.
A partnership second to none.
Our mission is to put tools in the hands of innovators as they build a better future. To reach critical milestones, they need access to resources and the infrastructure to drive progress. Each day, the work we do at CSC is in service of accelerating innovation and the entrepreneurs who drive it.
A better kind of capital from a better kind of partner.
Every transaction is funded 100% by our internal private capital, providing streamlined and flexible financing. CSC's decision makers will always work directly with clients and foster a genuine relationship that can help them endure market cycles and the ups and downs of entrepreneurship. As a result, our clients can focus on other priorities and scale their businesses with more speed and agility.
Accelerating innovation, one investment at a time.
CSC is the same now as it’s always been: entrepreneurial and purpose driven. But we’ve also grown. We’ve partnered with thousands of companies around the world, built long-term relationships and four decades of expertise, and supported the development of groundbreaking technologies, always with the goal of helping innovators succeed.
