Our Story
Peoples Bank was formed in September of 2000 — but our story begins long before that. We've been banking with the same people, in the same communities, for decades.
Where People Come First
The bank that has always put its customers and community at the center of everything it does.
Most of our employees and directors started working together in the early '80s, for Grant County Bank. Throughout the '80s and '90s, the name on the outside of the building changed several times — but for the most part, the people inside the bank stayed the same.
The founders of Peoples Bank came to realize that the name on the building didn't make the bank; rather, the employees and customers who passed through its doors were its heart and soul. With this in mind, Peoples Bank was born in September of 2000.
Since then, it's been our mission to be the bank where people come first. Nothing is more important than our customers, and it is our privilege to serve your banking needs with care and excellence. Today, Peoples Bank is going strong — continuously evolving to the needs of its customers while staying rooted in its core principles of friendly service and personalized solutions.
