We’re Focused on Making Our Communities Stronger

Every day, we set out to help our customers achieve economic and financial security through the banking services we offer. 

As a community bank, the people and places we support are home to us. Our customers are our neighbors. We shop with the businesses that bank with us. And we’re committed to making the communities we serve better. 

For our employees, we want to be a place where they can learn, grow their skills, and find fulfillment in being part of a local bank.

Palmetto State Bank Philosophy

As a mission-driven Community Bank, Palmetto State Bank abides with a distinct set of values. We inspire our employees to maintain a strong sense of purpose, which in turn develops a high level of self-esteem. Our employees aren’t afraid to take that step forward and turn rational ideas into actions and actions into goals. Their competitive nature and “can do” attitude ultimately fulfill the very essence of our mission.

Furthermore, Palmetto State Bank believes that banking is about meaningful, long-term relationships, not only with our employees, but our customers as well. We strive to add value to these relationships by taking the time to listen, understand, and care about any need or concern our employees or customers may have. Our individualized, responsive service and community involvement sets us apart from other banks and contributes greatly to our success.

Also, Palmetto State Bank strongly supports local non-profit groups, the chamber of commerce, and area schools through contributions and employee volunteerism. It is important for us to function as a community member, gladly giving back through ties with area organizations and events for the betterment of our community.
