About Us

On June 5, 1987, with John Lewis at the helm, The Bank of Fayetteville opened its doors and the city and surrounding areas were introduced to convenient, neighborhood banking.

Under her direction, The Bank of Fayetteville continues to hone a unique culture and successful banking model.
Founded on the principle of treating customers the way we would want to be treated, The Bank of Fayetteville always strives to exceed customers expectations by providing a one of a kind, genuinely friendly banking experience.

We are committed to serving our community through financial contributions and volunteer hours.
To support that commitment The Bank of Fayetteville gives thousands of dollars in financial assistance and hundreds of Partner volunteer hours to a variety of non-profit organizations, civic groups, special events and programs.
The Bank of Fayetteville continues to grow and open brick and mortar branches in thriving communities. With eight branches up and running and a ninth opening in the Farmington community in summer 2008, our network of banking convenience expands.
