BILOXI, Miss.–Keesler Federal Credit Union said it has become the Official Credit Union of both NFL’s New Orleans Saints and the NBA’s New Orleans Pelicans.
The announcement was made during the $4-billion credit union’s annual membership meeting, which attracted several-thousand people. Terms of the deals were not released.
“This partnership is a perfect fit for Keesler Federal, and we are thrilled to become the only official credit union partner of these great teams,” said President and CEO Andy Swoger. “Our footprints in the Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama markets align, and this partnership will allow us to expand our brand to the regional communities we serve and engage in community endeavors with these NFL and NBA organizations.”
‘Long-Term Commitment’
“This is a long-term commitment as we continue to focus on making a meaningful difference in the communities where we live, work, and enjoy outstanding quality of life,” Swoger continued. “Many people don’t realize they can join Keesler Federal. This partnership is a great opportunity to expand our brand awareness and educate consumers about membership benefits – especially as we begin to increase our footprint in the Greater New Orleans area.”
Keesler FCU has more than 318,000 members.
