Cookeville – Workers are making progress on FirstBank‘s newest location at the corner of County Service Drive and Willow Avenue in Cookeville. According to sources, the building will open on Dec. 9 and will replace the 851 S. Willow Avenue location as FirstBank’s primary Cookeville office.

As FirstBank grows, Scott Garrett, Cookeville Market President says the market is, “growing, diverse and vibrant.” Garrett said operating as a community first bank is important.

“It allows us to react quickly to the needs of the client and be able to offer the services of a much larger bank,” Garrett said on firstbankonline.com. “It’s a special niche that separates us from other smaller and national banks.”

What is the best part of that sense of community?

“Getting to know the customers on a personal level and being able to meet their needs in a very efficient manner,” said Garrett.

FirstBank current operating hours are Mon. to Thurs. 8 a.m. to 4 p.m and Fri. 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. They are closed on Saturday.
