Queensborough National Bank & Trust will be opening a full-service banking office in Pooler, Georgia, in front of Lowes on Pooler Parkway. The office will offer checking and savings products, commercial, small business and consumer loans, mortgages, and wealth management.

“The south end of Pooler Parkway is still in the early stages of a major development boom. We looked at many options and decided this was the best location to get on the ground floor of the new growth in an area that isn’t presently served by a bank,” said SVP and Coastal Region Manager Mike English. “This also provides a convenient location for our many existing customers in the Pooler area.”

Founded in 1902, Queensborough National Bank & Trust operates 26 offices between Augusta and Savannah and has enjoyed slow and steady growth in the Savannah market since first opening a mortgage lending office in 2003. Queensborough opened its first branch in Savannah in 2009 and expanded in 2015 with the acquisition of the former Certus Banks branches and subsequently acquired the local branch of Atlantic Coast Bank.  Now the bank operates three branches in the area, two in Savannah and one in Rincon, and a business development office located in the historic John Berrien house in downtown Savannah.

“Community banks provide a greater sense of security and economic stability within the area, and we are looking forward to growing our presence in the Savannah market,” said Bill Easterlin, CEO and President. “We are excited about giving the many customers in Pooler the opportunity to experience all Queensborough has to offer.”
