Governor Brian Kemp announced this week that Toyota Financial Services will open a new office in Alpharetta to become the company’s East Dealer Service Center. The investment of more than $8 million will bring 150 new jobs to Fulton County.
“Georgia is an established leader in FinTech, and Toyota Financial Service’s announcement is a wonderful addition to our network of global financial leaders,” said Governor Kemp. “I’m excited for the new opportunities that this will provide the hardworking and skilled talent in Alpharetta, and we are grateful for Toyota Financial’s additional investment in Georgia.”
Toyota Financial Services, the finance and insurance brand for Toyota in the United States, will open at 11625 Rainwater Drive in Alpharetta. This East Dealer Service Center will be one of three “hub” locations for the company that support automotive dealers across the nation. Employees at this location will primarily analyze and make approval determinations on retail and lease credit applications received from auto dealerships. They will interact with dealer personnel to support their needs and ensure a positive experience with Toyota Financial Services.
“We at Toyota are excited to select Alpharetta as the location of our new East Dealer Service Center. With a reputation for being one of Georgia’s best places to live, and a city experiencing its own economic and cultural growth, Alpharetta is ideal for Toyota’s evolution as we continue meeting the needs of our dealers and customers,” said Alec Hagey, Toyota Financial Services group vice president of sales, product, and marketing. “From the start, the city has been so welcoming, and we look forward to being a valued, contributing member of the community.”
