 In 1949, General Electric offered TD its line of heating equipment, and the company began to have dealers and a small wholesale business.The Worthington line had been a profitable arrangement, and in 1950 GE became increasingly dissatisfied with its North Texas distributor and offered its air conditioning line to Texas Distributors.Worthington provided more income than GE would at the beginning, but the manufacturer expected its distributor to handle a certain volume of equipment, so doing business with GE meant doing more business than TD had ever done.
