Central Pennsylvania-based Shipley Energy Group announced today that the company has chosen Patriot Capital as its preferred financing partner to assist its dealers in modernizing their retail and commercial fueling sites.
“Our customers are faced with a wide range of site-upgrade needs in the coming year,” said Steve Passio, President of Shipley Energy.. “Considering brand upgrades, EMV payment dispenser and point-of-sale upgrades, energy efficiency projects such as LED lighting, and other improvements, many of our retailers may be faced with investments in excess of $100,000.
Shipley Energy Group’s relationship with Patriot Capital will provide Shipley customers the opportunity to obtain equipment financing at advantaged rates as part of their ongoing partnership with Shipley Energy. Additionally, dealers will benefit from being able to finance ‘soft costs”— including installation and shipping — through Patriot Capital programs.
Shipley Energy Group traces its origin back to 1929, when Thomas Shipley founded Roosevelt Garage and Supply Company on Roosevelt Street in York, Pennsylvania. Situated across the street from York Manufacturing, it was a convenient location for that company’s employees to fill their gas tanks and service their automobiles. Now recognized as the largest locally-owned provider of oil, natural gas, kerosene and propane in the mid-Atlantic region, Shipley Energy Group has been family owned for more than 86 years.
“For us, customer service is our top priority and we have the rich history to prove it,” Shipley explained. “The company is in its fourth generation of family ownership, and while we have grown, our roots stay firmly planted in creating caring relationships and giving back to the community.”
