Had a terrific visit with client Daniel Denigris, founder of Echelon Cycles, with Melanie Stern, Director of Consumer Lending at Spring Bank NY, to learn more about Spring Bank's exciting new GoGreen Cycle Loan program! This innovative incentive allows New Yorkers to get low-cost "pay as you go" loans to purchase bikes from bike shops enrolled in the program, with no credit score requirement! We're excited not only because Echelon is one of the first retailers in New York to be affiliated with the program and to be able to offer high-quality bikes via Spring Bank’s GoGreen Cycle Loan, but also because it will make it possible for more New Yorkers to "go green" through affordable bike purchases. #biking #gogreen #lowcostloans #smallbusinesssupport
