For Cameron Aller, using Minster Bank for his business needs was a no-brainer.

“We’ve been working with Minster Bank for many years,” Aller says. “My dad had a business, and he started doing business financing through them when I was a kid. When we got older, we all started doing our finances with them.”

Aller is the general manager of Sunset Cylinder Exchange, a propane exchange program based in St. Marys, Ohio. His younger brother is the company president, and his older brother serves as vice president.

Successful Businesses Start With Minster Bank

So, what is a propane exchange program, exactly?

“You know the propane tank on your gas grill?” asks Aller. “When it’s empty, you take it to a gas station or Lowe’s or a convenience store with the propane cages out front, and you exchange the propane tank. We own the cages.”

Sunset Cylinder Exchange is responsible for delivering and picking up the propane tanks and also retaining, refilling and refurbishing the tanks.

With more than 1,200 locations in four states, Aller knew he needed a bank that would make it easy for him to take care of his company’s day-to-day operations. Because Minster Bank has been there for his family for many years, he knew exactly where to turn for his banking and financing needs.

“We’ve been working with Minster Bank for many years through our farm,” Aller says. “Farm financing is where we started.”

The Ease Of Online Banking For The Whole Family

Minster Bank’s business online banking makes banking more flexible, cuts down on paperwork and saves time, Aller says. It’s a feature he and his family use every day, along with Minster Bank’s remote deposit service.

“We use remote deposit for checks and do all the checkbook balancing from the online accounts,” he says. “The online banking comes in handy when we transfer money from business to business.”
