DALLAS – EFG Companies, the innovator behind the award-winning Hyundai Assurance Program, and F&I Express, the largest automotive F&I aftermarket product network, announced today a partnership to better serve their dealership clients by fully integrating their eContracting capabilities.
“At EFG Companies, we understand that no two dealers are the same,” said John Pappanastos, President and CEO of EFG Companies. “Each dealer operates with different goals, success metrics, and systems, and we pride ourselves in acting as a strategic partner in their success. In our effort to further that initiative, we partnered with F&I Express to augment our growing list of e-contracting solutions with one of the most utilized eContracting platforms in the market.”
“For almost 40 years, EFG Companies has been leading innovation within the automotive industry,” said Brian Reed, President and CEO of F&I Express. “We have been eagerly anticipating their addition to our F&I eContracting network and look forward to bringing their products to our dealer customers.”
Currently, F&I Express works with many auto retailers across the U.S. to improve F&I processes. The company has aggregated a network of more than 100 automotive aftermarket insurance providers in an online portal accessible by its dealers.
