To further enhance U.S. Equestrian member benefits, USEF has formed an alliance with NTRA Purchasing, a subsidiary of the National Thoroughbred Racing Association, to bring significant discounts to the membership of the Federation.

U.S. Equestrian Purchasing offers substantial cost savings on products and services from John Deere, Dodge, FedEx, Nextel, Sherwin-Williams Paints, Boise Office Solutions, Presort Services and more.

Products purchased through U.S. Equestrian Purchasing are delivered from dealers in your local area, who provide on-site sales assistance plus value-added services that can reduce the overall cost of purchases by up to an additional 15%. Value-added services range from employee training in equipment operations to usage surveys to optimize your purchases. The John Deere equipment purchased through this program must be for and used on your full-time equine facility. Other products can be used for the member’s home, business or equine-related business.

In addition to the Purchasing Program, U.S. Equestrian will work closely with the NTRA to promote the link between our associations - the horse. This special purchasing program is free to junior, senior, platinum and life USEF members and enrollment in the program can be done via phone by calling toll-free (877) 576-6872 or by going to our website at http://www.usef.org/content/marketing/groupPurchasing.php. Junior memberships are $35 per year and senior memberships start at $40.
