First National Bank of Pandora broke ground on Aug. 24 for its newest full service banking center. The location is at 1114 Trenton Ave., Findlay, west of I-75 at the intersection of State Route 224 and County Road 300.

R.D. Neff and Associates, Bluffton architect, designed the branch.

"Our decision to expand will give new clients on the west side of Findlay a great option for their personal and business banking, and it will also be a benefit to existing clients because it makes banking with First National Bank even more convenient," said Todd Mason, president and CEO.

"This new location complements our existing location at 1630 Tiffin Ave. and means Findlay area residents and small business owners are only a few minutes from a First National banking center."

The new banking center will be located between Shell Oil and Streacker Tractor Sales on Trenton Avenue with direct access off Buckeye Lane.

The bank is making every effort to use local firms and contractors for the project, according to Mason.

"Our ultimate goal is to deliver quality service and provide financial solutions to the communities we serve. This new addition to our branch network will help us meet this goal," he said.
