Boston, MA & Rehoboth Beach, DE — February 3, 2025 — In a new partnership that strengthens North American access to surplus U.S. inventory,
Ameritrade Corporate Holdings, Inc. has selected
Chepstow Corporation as its exclusive liquidation partner for
obsolete and dated products sourced from Ameritrade’s manufacturing clients.
Based in Boston and established in 1999,
Ameritrade Corporate Holdings operates a portfolio of export management and trading companies. Working in conjunction with the
U.S. Department of Commerce and the
U.S. Export-Import Bank, Ameritrade represents over
15 major U.S. manufacturers in more than
35 countries.
Under this new agreement, Ameritrade will provide
Chepstow Corporation with direct access to closeout inventory from its partner manufacturers. Chepstow — a leading buyer and distributor of surplus goods — will be responsible for
liquidating these products across its expansive network of discount retailers, wholesalers, and secondary market buyers throughout the U.S. and Canada.
“Ameritrade’s relationships give us a unique window into high-quality, branded closeouts,” said
Paul Work, President and CEO of Chepstow Corporation. “This partnership allows us to bring fresh inventory to market while helping top manufacturers recover value on excess goods.”
“From a financial standpoint, Chepstow’s model eliminates friction and preserves margin,” said
Roger Bolduc, Chief Financial Officer of Ameritrade Corporate Holdings. “They take the entire inventory — not just the profitable pieces — which allows our partners to convert sunk costs into cash flow without the drag of piecemeal liquidation. It’s a full-risk transfer that delivers immediate balance sheet impact.”
The alliance comes at a critical time for both manufacturers and retailers. As supply chain disruptions and shifting consumer demand leave U.S. producers with growing volumes of unsold goods, the need for reliable liquidation channels has intensified. Meanwhile, North American retailers — especially those in the discount and value segments — are aggressively sourcing affordable inventory to meet consumer demand amid recessionary pressures.
“Chepstow has built a reputation for speed, discretion, and full-lot liquidation,” Bolduc added. “They’re the ideal partner to move this inventory efficiently and profitably into trusted secondary channels.”
