MD Enterprises And GE Money Structure a Consumer Financing Program

MAKER OF PRE-ENGINEERED STRUCTURES TO OFFER INSTALLMENT AND REVOLVING FINANCING

ST PAUL, MINN. -- July 9, 2007 – GE Money’s Sales Finance unit and MD Enterprises, the leader in the design, manufacture and installation of pre-engineered structures, today announced a multi-year relationship to provide consumer financing through GE's PROJECTLINE SM and PROJECTLOAN SM programs. Both programs will be offered at select MD authorized dealers across the U.S.

MD Enterprises specializes in equine facilities, stables, barns, garages, bunkhouses, self-storage units and agricultural buildings. In addition to pre-engineered structures, consumers will be able to use the programs to finance corral systems and interior components for existing structures such as stalls and other equipment for stabling build-outs.

“We design and build custom solutions to fit our customers’ requirements,” says Cliff Robbins, the president and chief operating officer for MD. “We are excited to work with GE Money to provide financing options to help people build the barn and storage facilities they need and fit the payments within their budget.”

Component strength, architectural style, safety and fire spread, size of building structure, airflow, sound absorption and ease of maintenance are some of the considerations when buying a pre-engineered building. MD Enterprises incorporates all of these elements into its designs.

“This financing program simplifies the purchase process for MD consumers and dealers by providing flexible financing options, fast credit decisions and prompt disbursement of funds,” says Bruce Christensen, vice president and general manager, home improvement industry, GE Money – Sales Finance. “We share MD Enterprises’ commitment to quality and customer satisfaction, and look forward to helping them continue to grow their business.”
