Queensland Country Bank CEO Aaron Newman has hosted a Community Welcome Event at the newly opened Maroochydore Branch.
The bank opened their new bricks and mortar branch at Maroochydore in April – a move that defies industry trends of mass bank closures across the state.
“While many banks are closing their doors, particularly in regional areas, Queensland Country Bank continues to prioritise supporting the regions and communities where our members live and work,” said CEO Aaron Newman, who hosted the event in early June said.
“Queensland Country Bank is committed to ensuring Queenslanders across the state—both in regional and metropolitan areas—have access to reliable and community-focused banking. The Sunshine Coast is one of the fastest growing regions in Queensland, and we are committed to being where our members are.
The Maroochydore branch expands our services and investment in the Sunshine Coast region, adding to our already established Maleny branch, and our investment in the much loved, and hugely popular Queensland Garden Show.”
He said the new branch has provided the Sunshine Coast community with direct access to personal, face-to-face banking services. While offering excellent digital banking services remains a key pillar of the bank, providing bricks and mortar and real-life banking is vital to communities.
The Sunshine Coast branch offers a full range of banking services and a welcoming environment for both retail and business customers seeking personalised financial solutions.
The moves also support the bank’s recent initiatives across the state including the principal partnership with Queensland Cricket and the Brisbane Heat, the continuing success of our Good for Good Community Grants program, and the ongoing naming rights at Townsville’s Queensland Country Bank Stadium.
