F&M Bank holds Ground Breaking Ceremony for new location in Hendersonville

Clarksville, TN – Hendersonville Mayor Scott Foster joined Sammy Stuard, F&M Bank President and CEO, for the official ground breaking ceremony for its new bank in Hendersonville Tennessee.

Located at 221 Indian Lake Boulevard, the new 10,000 square foot facility will house the both F&M’s banking and mortgage divisions. Construction should take eight months and will replace its 100 Blue Grass Commons office.

“In September, 2008, we opened our F&M Mortgage Services office at 100 Blue Grass Commons Boulevard. From the beginning, it has been a major contributor to F&M’s success and it was quickly followed in the Spring of 2009 with the addition of banking services,” said stated Sammy Stuard, F&M President and CEO.

“The immediate growth and success of these combined services were indications that within a few years a larger facility would be needed. We saw value in the Indian Lake property and soon purchased this lot for future expansion. Now that time is here and we are really excited about our new facility,” stated Stuard.

“The new branch will feature drive-up access, a 24 hour ATM, lockbox availability and an array of services currently not available. There will be plenty of parking and accessibility will be easy for our customers,” stated Brad Edwards, vice-president and branch manager.  In addition, the new facility will enhance the bank’s ability to service the residential mortgage needs of the robust housing market in Sumner County.

F&M Bank reports assets of $885 million and operates 15 full-service locations in Sumner, Montgomery, Rutherford, Robertson, Wilson, Stewart and Putnam Counties. In addition, it operates mortgage-only offices in Williamson (Brentwood) and Davidson (Green Hills) counties.
