Much has been broadcasted of late about regional and national campaigns to “BUY LOCAL”. Whether it be your friendly hardware store or neighborhood bakery/coffee shop, more and more consumers are making conscious decisions to make purchases from local businesses whenever possible. We are experiencing a similar trend at our bank. More customers are transferring their checking, savings and money market accounts to our bank because we are headquartered “locally” – Portage County. If you haven’t investigated our line of financial products, now might be the time to consider doing more business with our locally owned and operated bank.
