SHELBY — Shelby State Bank is celebrating 95 years of serving families, businesses and organizations across west Michigan.
Founded in 1931, the community bank says it has remained committed to personal service, local decision-making and supporting the communities it serves throughout its nearly century-long history.
Over the years, Shelby State Bank has expanded alongside the communities it serves while continuing to focus on relationship-based banking, helping small businesses grow and assisting families with important financial milestones.
“For 95 years, it has been our privilege to serve the people and communities who have placed their trust in Shelby State Bank,” President and CEO Mishelle Comstock said. “This anniversary is about more than the years behind us — it is about the relationships, shared successes and community spirit that have shaped who we are. We are deeply grateful for the opportunity to be part of our customers’ lives and look forward to serving our communities for many years to come.”
To commemorate the anniversary, Shelby State Bank will host a weeklong celebration June 22-26 at all branch locations. Customers and community members are invited to stop by and participate in the festivities.
Today, Shelby State Bank operates nine full-service branches in West Michigan, from Fruitport to Ludington. The bank continues to focus on responsive service, local leadership and community partnerships.
As it marks its 95th anniversary, Shelby State Bank says it remains committed to serving as a dependable financial partner and active community supporter for future generations.
