Cedar Croft Consulting, a management consulting firm that assists mid-market clients in the manufacturing, distribution, retail and service provider industry sectors located throughout North America, has structured and secured a $17MM revolving credit facility for Los Angeles-based Walker Zanger to support the organization’s financing goal for its strategic business plan.
