NEW
CAPE BANK HAMMONTON BRANCH
OPENS
FOR BUSINESS ON AUGUST 31, 2015
(HAMMONTON, NJ – AUGUST 31, 2015)
– Strengthening its commitment to the community of Hammonton and the greater western Atlantic County region, Cape Bank opened
its doors to its new Hammonton branch at 9 am on Monday, August 31, 2015.
Cape Bank purchased the branch, which is
located at 12th Street & First Road, along with the associated deposits and loans, from Sun National Bank on August 28, 2015.
Sun officially ceased to operate the branch at the close of business on Thursday, August 27, 2015. The branch formally opened as
Cape Bank on Monday, August 31, 2015.
For the past year, Cape Bank has operated
a Commercial Loan Office at 129 North White Horse Pike, Suite 1, in Hammonton. Cape Bank welcomes their new customers and the opportunity
to offer a complete line of individual and commercial banking services to the community of Hammonton through its newest retail
banking branch.
“Over the past four years, we have
been working to redirect our focus towards western New Jersey to counter the perception that Cape Bank is just a ‘shore’
bank,” said Cape Bank President and CEO Michael Devlin. “The western New Jersey expansion, which included our purchase
of Colonial Bank and its Cumberland and Gloucester County branches, will be further augmented by the purchase of the Sun National
Bank branch in Hammonton.
“While we’ve had customers
in the Hammonton market for many years, the opening of our Commercial Loan Office last year was another step in strengthening relations
with businesses in the city of Hammonton and the surrounding region,” continued Devlin. “When Sun National Bank was
willing to sell its Hammonton branch as a one-off, we moved quickly, recognizing the purchase as a way to not only better serve
our commercial customers, but to build personal banking relationships in the community.”
Cape Bank offers a wide variety of personal
and business banking services. As a community bank with a strong asset base, it can offer its customers the best of all worlds.
“From a commercial standpoint, Cape
Bank views every customer and every business individually, and is open to doing business across all industries,” said Devlin.
“We have the flexibility to do business loans up to $20 million and look at our commercial relationships on an individualized
basis.
“While most people know us as a community
bank that is committed to providing a local brand of personalized customer service, at Cape Bank, we have the resources and technology
needed to deliver the same products and services as the major retail banks,” Devlin continued. “Whether it’s
online or mobile banking, it’s available through Cape Bank.”
Devlin went on to point out that Cape Bank
will extend its philosophy to be a great community partner and good corporate citizen to the Hammonton market. “Whether it’s
through our Charitable Foundation, which gives hundreds of thousands of dollars each year to support our social services partners,
or through the community advertising and in kind donations made by our Hammonton branch, Cape Bank will maintain a strong profile
in the community,” said Devlin, who makes his home in Hammonton.
