Augusta – Chase Bank opened its first retail branch in Augusta on Thursday at the intersection of Washington Road and Alexander Drive, located right in front of Kroger. The grand opening event attracted national and local leaders from Chase, who revealed plans to establish up to six additional branches in the Augusta area over the next three years, significantly enhancing the bank’s footprint in the region.
Since beginning its expansion in Georgia in 2008, Chase has successfully grown its presence to 115 branches statewide, employing over 2,000 individuals. The bank currently provides services to nearly 70,000 consumers and over 3,000 businesses within Augusta. As part of its growth strategy, Chase plans to hire local bankers, branch managers, business bankers, and financial advisors to adequately staff the new branch and cater to the community’s financial needs.
The new Augusta branch showcases a modern design, featuring an open layout and cutting-edge banking technology that align with contemporary customer engagement trends. The facility aims to create a friendly and welcoming environment for both new and existing clients, offering a range of services. These services will be supported by a dedicated team that includes Chase Private Client advisers, relationship bankers, a home lending adviser, and a specialized business banker.
In addition to standard banking services, the Augusta branch provides both walk-up and drive-up ATMs for added convenience. This feature aims to enhance customer accessibility to banking solutions, catering to the diverse needs of local residents.
The regional director of consumer banking at Chase highlighted the bank’s dedication to becoming a trusted, long-term partner within the Augusta community. By expanding its services, Chase seeks to support local economic growth and ensure that financial solutions are easily accessible to residents and businesses alike.
The grand opening celebration featured remarks from Chase leaders, a presentation from the Greenbrier High School JROTC Color Guard, and food offerings from local vendors. Additionally, event attendees participated in merchandise giveaways, helping to foster a spirited community atmosphere during the launch.
Chase Bank has been increasing its presence in Georgia since 2008, allowing it to better serve its customers across the state. The bank has made significant strides in establishing better banking access and service quality, which align with its broader business objectives. The plans for more branches in Augusta come on the heels of existing success, reflecting the growing demand for comprehensive financial products and services in the area.
In a related note, an Augusta resident recently won over $30,000 on an instant-win lottery ticket, marking a fortunate win for the community. This follows another noteworthy event, where a player from nearby Appling won $80,000. Such financial gains could potentially lead to increased engagement with local banks, as residents look to reinvest their winnings into securing their financial futures.
As Chase Bank embarks on this new chapter in Augusta, it promises to provide enhanced banking services that cater to the needs of the growing community while fostering local economic development through the creation of new jobs and financial opportunities.
