ounded on August 12, 1867, the Bank of Stockton has been serving the Central Valley and surrounding communities for 155 years. The bank’s footprint spans over nine contiguous counties and is comprised of twenty branches, including locations in Stockton, Lodi, Tracy, Manteca, Modesto, Turlock, Elk Grove, the Mother Lode, Napa, Brentwood and Fairfield. All branches follow the founding principles of strength, safety and service with an emphasis on technological innovations to make banking easier. From a suite of cash management products for business clients to the best in online and mobile banking, Bank of Stockton is a modern bank with a touch of old world service that makes it truly unique. Bank of Stockton is also known for reinvesting back into the communities it serves. “A good community bank is there for its customers and reinvests back into the communities it serves in the form of loans,” said Doug Eberhardt II, President and CEO. As such, the Bank is recognized for being a local lender with local decision-making and is involved in the communities where their branches operate.
