Jacksonville-based Austin Bank and the Conroe/Lake Conroe and Huntsville/Walker County Area Chambers of Commerce held a ribbon-cutting ceremony to celebrate the opening of the new full-service banking center in Willis. The February 25 ceremony was well attended by both chambers, along with business leaders, the Austin Bank leadership team and bank employees. The new office is located at 9375 FM 1097, Ste. 400.
Austin Bank’s Willis office is under the leadership of Weldon Whitt, senior vice president/commercial lender, and Mere Todd, retail office manager.
“We are extremely pleased with the leadership of Mere and Weldon,” says Jeff Austin III, chairman. “They have established a strong team committed to providing an excellent customer experience for our friends and neighbors.”
Established in 1900, Austin Bank operates 41 Texas locations within 29 cities and 14 counties. The bank is locally owned and operated by the Austin family, which is celebrating 116 years of service in the Texas banking industry.
