Stockman Bank to open branch in downtown Kalispell



Stockman Bank will open a bank branch at 1 Main Street in Kalispell later this year.

The Montana-based bank is also adding a Whitefish location which should be ready for use by the end of next year.

Joe Kola, president of Flathead Market, said in a press release that Stockman is excited to bring his unique brand of community banking from Montana to the Flathead Valley. “Stockman is a private, family-owned community bank focused on meeting the financial needs of all Montanais,” said Kola. “We look forward to opening this new office in Kalispell where we can serve our existing Flathead clients and welcome new clients. “

The new bank office is being renovated and is expected to open by the end of the year.

“Once we are open, we will be able to assist clients with personal and business accounts and loans, as well as home loans,” Kola said. In the meantime, checking accounts and personal savings accounts can be opened online at www.stockmanbank.com.

Kola said hiring is her next priority for the new office.

“I’m looking for bankers who are dedicated to putting their clients at the center of everything they do,” he said. “At Stockman, we are well known for our commitment to providing exceptional customer service as well as our strong community involvement and a well-trained and knowledgeable workforce.”
