By Staff Report, posted Feb 15, 2022 on BizFayetteville.com

Fidelity Bank recently celebrated the grand opening of its newest branch in Southern Pines with a ribbon-cutting ceremony and reception. 

Many town officials were present at the event, including Southern Pines Mayor Carol Haney, town councilmembers Bill Pate and Taylor Clement, North Carolina Senators Tom McInnis and Dave Craven, Jr. 

Also in attendance were members of Fidelity Bank's Executive Management team.

Phil Woodard, executive vice president, began the ceremony by welcoming guests and sharing his appreciation for all those who made it possible to have this new location. 

"We are very excited to be in Southern Pines. It feels like this has been a long time coming, and to finally see it all come together is such a wonderful feeling," shared Woodard.

Jim Byrd, area executive, was introduced and took a moment to recognize members of the Chamber of Commerce and the Fidelity Bank team for the Southern Pines branch.

The associates at this branch have more than 207 combined years of experience in banking and are responsible for business development. Before moving to the Southern Pines location, the team was located at the branch in Aberdeen. 

"We have a great group of bankers that are eager to assist the residents of Southern Pines and Moore County with all of their financial needs," said Byrd. "We also want to thank the entire group at Davie Construction Company for their partnership and the blood, sweat, and tears that went into building this beautiful branch."

After the ribbon-cutting, those in attendance were allowed to tour the new 8,109 square foot building. 

The new Southern Pines location will provide full-service banking, three drive-thru lanes, and a drive-thru ATM that accepts cash deposits. The branch is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday - Thursday, and 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Friday. 

Fidelity Bank is a full-service financial institution with assets of approximately $3.6 billion headquartered in Fuquay-Varina, North Carolina. The bank currently owns and operates 57 branches throughout North Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia.
