With over 500 dedicated team members, growing assets and more momentum than ever, Choice Bank has carved its path as one of the fastest-growing banks in America. But Choice Bank isn't just a bank; it's a People First organization.  

Their success isn't measured solely by numbers, but by their dedication to enhancing the vitality of families, businesses, and lives in our community. It's this commitment that sets them apart and truly defines their remarkable journey.  

In 2023, Choice Bank reached 125 employees in our FMWF market, and logged an impressive 1,200 volunteer hours to 69 various local organizations. In fact, United Way of Cass-Clay recently named them one of the Most Generous Workplaces. 

Last year also marked an unprecedented growth in assets for the bank, with Choice now exceeding $5 billion in assets. With their unmatched growth, cutting-edge technology and rock-solid customer and community relationships, it’s no surprise that the bank has been featured and ranked by esteemed national publications. Choice has also been named North Dakota’s number one Ag Bank by the American Bankers association. And that's not just for this year. That’s a title they have held every single year since 2011. 

As the world continues to present unpredictable challenges and opportunities to us all, Choice has continued to be a pioneer in finding ways for the organization and its customers to succeed. From implementing new tech and efficiencies, to revolutionizing processes, and continuing to lead the way with supporting small businesses and entrepreneurs, they're not afraid to embrace change and create success. And when it comes to customer service, they've set the bar high, ensuring every interaction is personalized and seamless. 

So, here's to Choice Bank, a symbol of excellence, a champion of people and a true leader in the community. For Choice Bank, this is just the beginning, and they will continue to create a lasting impact through their four core values: 

• Better the places we live,

• Embrace change and encourage innovation,

• Know when to ask for help, and know when to offer help,

• And finally, work hard, do the right thing and have a little fun.

Congratulations to Choice Bank, The Chamber’s 2024 Business of the Year!
