Appears to be a non-notable business person. Account content has almost entirely been contributed by two banned accounts. This looks like a violation of WP:N and possibly WP:COI. Prior deletion discussion is called into question by the heavy participation of these banned accounts, User:Ecoleetage and User:NYScholar, which were involved in sockpuppetry.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

  • Delete per nom. Can't find any suitable sources on Gnews, and only passing mention/quote on Bing. To be fair, User:NYScholar was community banned for other reasons and was not necessarily a part of the User:Ecoleetage sockpuppetry - though it is interesting that the entry for Farm Credit of New Mexico was created by Eco during the course of the original McAbbee AfD, seemingly to lend credibility to McAbbee during that AfD, was also heavily edited by NYScholar, and is similarly non notable.
