Stock Yards Bank & Trust has converted its downtown Bowling Green loan office into a full-service branch at 360 E. Eighth Ave., Suite 305, according to The Lane Report. The Lane Report says the bank held a ribbon-cutting on Sept. 29, about four months after the site opened as a loan production office.

The Details

  • Where: 360 E. Eighth Ave., Suite 305, downtown Bowling Green, per The Lane Report and WBKO.
  • What changed: The location now operates as a full-service branch. WBKO reported in May that the site opened May 18 as a loan production office, the bank's first physical presence in the market.
  • Hours, prices and fees: Not confirmed; check with the bank.

The Backstory

WBKO reported in May that Rick Seadler leads the Bowling Green operation as market president and that three full-time associates staffed the loan office at launch. The same report described the office as the first step toward a planned full-service retail branch. The Lane Report says the branch is expected to add more staff, including tellers.

What It Means for Bowling Green

Until now, the bank's presence here was a loan office. With the branch designation, residents and businesses can do in-person banking at the Eighth Avenue address, rather than only meeting about loans. The bank is Louisville-based, and it said in May that it intends to eventually develop multiple locations in the market.

Before You Go

  • Confirm services, hours and any account requirements with the bank directly, since this story relies on published reports and not a visit.
  • The exact date of the ribbon-cutting should be checked against the bank's own announcement.
