INSIGHT
SMALL & MEDIUM ENTERPRISE
When Ceilings Plus began
expanding globally in 2007,
they sought a banking partner
who could combine small business
expertise with the international
capabilities necessary to achieve
their goals. Impressed by Bank of
the West’s ability to deliver on both
counts, they have worked with us
ever since.
Today, Bank of the West provides
Ceilings Plus with lines of credit,
performance bonds, cash
management and equipment
financing. By leveraging our
relationship with BNP Paribas,
we also equip Ceilings Plus with
the global trade solutions and
export-import bank services they
need to succeed anywhere their
business takes them.

“The Bank of the West team is extremely perceptive
and approachable. It feels like we’re working with a
friendly local bank in town, but backed by the power
of one of the leading banks in the world.”
