DUNEDIN — The expansion at Achieva Credit Union, a $997 million institution, continues with the announcement that it will break ground on a new corporate headquarters.

The office will be at 1659 Virginia St. in Dunedin, the credit union says in a statement. A groundbreaking ceremony, scheduled to include Achieva President and CEO Gary Regoli and Dunedin Mayor Dave Eggers, is scheduled for 11:30 a.m. Friday. The corporate office will be built in three phases, the credit union says, and should be completed by 2013.

Achieva sold its previous corporate headquarters, on Gulf to Bay Boulevard in Clearwater, earlier this year. Clearwater based-iDatix Corp. paid $2.8 million for the 26,450-square-foot building.

Achieva, which celebrated its 75th anniversary last month, is expanding in other ways, in addition to its new corporate office. The credit union expects to surpass $1 billion in assets by the end of the year, and it recently eclipsed 100,000 members. It also plans to open in its first branch in Hillsborough County, in the Westchase area, later this year.
