About Us and Our History
In early 2004, Will Griffin sold his administrative and computer consulting business in Nashville, Tennessee and returned to the Pittsburgh, PA area to retire and to catch up with family, after being away for over 25 years. To occupy his time during the week and to attempt to give unemployed and underemployed volunteer firefighters jobs helping other fire departments with grant-writing and other forms of financing, he created and standardized methods & resources to help fire departments obtain funding and reliable apparatus and equipment. On October 31, 2005 the first of many web sites, VFD-Funding.com, was purchased and published to the web as the result of these endeavors and a commitment by Will Griffin to help fire departments and municipalities find reliable and inexpensive new and used fire trucks, while also getting the lowest interest rates found anywhere, while also charging fees which were 1/2 or more less than all others in this industry. For over a year, the "retired" Will Griffin worked 18-20 hours per day and 7 days a week, servicing and assisting fire departments customers to acquire fire trucks, sell their used fire trucks, and also provide any and all financing which was needed. Will continued to to reinvest into VFD-Funding, by acquiring over 50 more web sites and developing them and their search engine rankings. These web sites all reflected the ability of Will Griffin to finance any fire department and municipality. In 2006, more professional staff were hired throughout the USA to help with the large volume of customers seeking financing, new fire trucks and to find a source to help sell their used apparatus and equipment. 2007 brought continue growth in staff, financing capacities, a global ability to sell and finance fire apparatus and ambulances, vendors, and the number of banks and other financing allies. 2007 also brought the formation of Will Griffin Fire and the creation of two additional companies, in addition to VFD-Funding Group. These being the VFD-Fire Group and the VFD-EMS Group. The company and Will Griffin relocated to Daytona Beach, FL Today, Will Griffin Fire and all of its subsidiaries including: VFD-Funding Group, VFD-Fire Group and VFD-EMS Group continue in our commitment to provide fire departments and municipalities with the lowest financing rates, easiest terms, the best new fire trucks and ambulances at the lowest prices, more effective resources for selling used apparatus and all at the lowest fees and commissions in the industry which are less than 1/2 of what many less effective and lesser dedicated companies offer, and the best customer service from fellow firefighters found anywhere.
