BREVARD COUNTY, FLORIDA – Space Coast Credit Union, Florida’s third-largest credit union, recently announced record-breaking production figures for 2016, delivering over $1 billion in auto lending for the first time in its 65-year history.

The credit union projects these lending totals equate to approximately $25 million saved for its members.

“This production represents true value for our member-owners, a billion dollars in auto lending was not a goal that we set out to achieve in 2016,” President and CEO Doug Samuels said.

“However, we continued to experience demand for vehicle loans, and our employees stepped up and met the needs of our members, while also ensuring the memberships’ interests were protected.”

Offering competitive auto loan rates as low as 1.89 percent APR* and financing thousands of vehicles each month, consumers trust SCCU as lending experts who also watch out for them in all aspects of their financial lives.

This, coupled with the ease and convenience of applying and getting pre-approved for an auto loan in minutes online, over the phone or at the dealership, has led the credit union to becoming the top auto lender in Brevard County while continually increasing its market share in the 13 other counties it serves.
