COMMUNITYSOUTH BANK & TRUST OPENS ITS FOURTH BRANCH,
FULL-SERVICE ANDERSON OFFICE OPENS TODAY
Upstate, SC -- July 31, 2006 -- South Carolina’s fastest growing community bank arrived in Anderson this morning! CommunitySouth Bank & Trust officially opened its Anderson branch at 1510 North Main Street today, its fourth full-service office in the Upstate and second to open this year.
“We are very excited about our entry into the fast growing Anderson market,” said C. Allan Ducker, III, Chief Executive Officer of CommunitySouth. “Our goal is to be the community bank of choice in the Upstate, and Anderson is a natural fit for our geographic footprint.”
While the Bank officially opened its Anderson office today, CommunitySouth has had a presence in Anderson since the Bank opened in January 2005.
“We already have a number of loan customers in the Anderson area, along with some deposit customers, which have been serviced through our free business courier service,” said Jay Davis, Senior Vice President and Anderson City Executive. “We look forward to providing them and the rest of the community with a technologically advanced local office focused on their needs.”
“We have great expectations for our Anderson office,” said Ducker. “We offer many benefits other local banks don’t – nationwide free ATMs, free online banking and bill pay, free checks, extended banking hours, free business courier service, and free freshly baked cookies. But what really sets up apart from the bank down the street is our people. When you come to CommunitySouth, we take care of you – not just your money.”
CommunitySouth Bank & Trust’s new Anderson office features two flat screen televisions, a 24-hour ATM, drive-thru, full-service teller line, night depository, safe deposit boxes, free business courier service, and the Bank’s signature refreshment center with free freshly baked cookies, coffee and soft drinks.
The branch is open six days a week with both early bird morning and late evening hours, including Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. and Saturday from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
