JPMorgan Chase Bank of Columbus, Ohio, on Wednesday marked the grand opening of the first of four planned Arkansas branches.
The $3.2 trillion-asset lender has been setting up shop in a mix of new construction and existing space along with acquired and leased property, Arkansas Business reported last month.
Its first branch in Arkansas is opening at Chenal Parkway near West Markham Street in Little Rock. Chase said it has 14,000 business customers in Arkansas.
“This expansion is a chance for us to deepen our local roots and become part of the local community,” branch manager Kyle Rhodes said in a news release. “We love helping our customers achieve their financial dreams. Making a difference in their lives is what this expansion is all about.”
The three other branches, expected to open in Little Rock by the end of the year, are at:
- Cantrell Road and Southridge Drive (October)
- East McClain and Glover (November)
- South University Avenue and Midtown Avenue (November)
Chase is hiring staff for these branches, offering hourly wages starting at $16 and a benefits package.
