In response to an increased demand for services, Wallis State Bank, a Houston-based full-service community bank, has announced an initiative to support the company's anticipated business growth over the long term. Wallis State Bank's expansion plan parallels its current marketing efforts to rebrand. The Bank is updating its name, logo, and website to reflect its present nationwide expansion.

This plan includes the recent expansion into the Georgia market, with the first bank office located in Atlanta. In addition, the company will be upgrading its internet services to provide an elevated online banking experience for all customers.

Asif Dakri, Chief Executive Officer at Wallis State Bank, explained, "Over the years, Wallis State Bank has become established and well known throughout the state of Texas with Wallis, Texas starting as our original location in 1906. Over the last thirty years, we've seen an exponential amount of growth, not only within the metropolitan areas of Texas such as Houston, Dallas, and San Antonio but also in outlying markets including Los Angeles and Atlanta. Our current expansion efforts have been tremendously successful, and we look forward to continue executing our growth strategy."

As the company continues to add locations, Dakri elaborated on the organization's commitment to providing unparalleled banking services. "As we continue to grow, Wallis State Bank will offer the same personalized service we've provided since 1906. We will always hold to the mission of providing financial services that are unsurpassed in customer satisfaction," Dakri said. "As we look forward to expanding and providing our services to additional markets, we will remain the same trustworthy banking partner to all of our current, and future clients. We look forward to the growth Wallis State Bank plans to make in the years to come."
