After a brief round of layoffs in the spring, Great Lakes Asset Solutions is growing yet again. With many states imposing restrictions on repossessions, Great Lakes furloughed much of its staff to weather the pandemic and the restrictions imposed by local governments. Ten weeks later not only was all staff back in the office, but Great Lakes leased additional office space in its Historic Lockport, NY, location. The additional space will not only permit additional social distancing within the office but will accommodate additional staff being trained.

With the deferrals and extensions granted by many lenders coming due, Great Lakes expects an increase in placements from new and existing clients as protections for end users expire. The newly leased space and the recent appointment of Training Manager Jim Gurney will allow new hires to be trained and deployed rapidly.

Great Lakes Asset Solutions LLC, formed in 2015 by Brandon Marvin, has grown from its core group of five to a nationwide firm of over 40.
