New Doraville Branch Highlights Touchmark National Bank’s Steady Growth
Touchmark National Bank is pleased to announce the grand opening of its third branch in Doraville, GA. The branch is located in the new Peachtree Pavilion development on Peachtree Industrial Boulevard at I-285. Peachtree Pavilion is a new 180,000 square foot retail center soon to be anchored by a Super H-Mart and is adjacent to the Doraville GM property which is slated for re-development into a 'live-work-play' complex.
“We are excited to open in this vibrant new development in Doraville. This area is dynamic and diverse, and our bank has made a significant investment to support the growing needs of businesses and individuals in this community” said Bill Short, President & CEO of Touchmark National Bank.
Vitra Darden, a 25 year banking veteran, has been named Manager of the Doraville branch. “We’re excited about our location in an area that is witnessing both growth and redevelopment”, says Darden. “Our branch staff has many years of experience working in this community, and we bring that experience with us to Touchmark’s newest location. We know how business works here and we’re excited to assist Doraville’s continuing growth”. Says Darden: “Our job is to help our clients make the most of their money over time and it’s a philosophy they seem to appreciate.”
Charlene Fang, Touchmark’s Senior Business Development Officer, also has her office based at the new Doraville branch. Both Darden and Fang are career bankers with longstanding ties to Doraville. “Our strategy to help our clients be successful is one of the reasons we are growing and expanding as a bank,” adds Fang. “With so many negative headlines about financial services in the news, it’s a wonderful thing to celebrate our success as a strong, community-focused bank. The Doraville community is diverse, hard-working and entrepreneurial. I like to say that we are 'an American bank that speaks your language’, meaning that we understand the language of hardworking business people, whatever their nationality".
