ELG Gap Financing Helps Local Business

ELG Gap Financing Program Supports Michigan Ladder Company

The Eastern Leaders Group Gap Financing Program provides additional funding to manufacturing companies that wish to expand their operations. 

The Michigan Ladder Company, located in Ypsilanti, has used these funds to assist with expansion of their production capacity and product line. 

In March 2010, this company was featured in a Wall Street Journal article because of difficulties in the tight credit market.

In July 2011, this company was featured in the online magazine Concentrate because of their growth thanks to help from the ELG. 

The Eastern Leaders Group is proud to provide support to such a successful Eastern Washtenaw County manufacturing business!
