TD Bank opened a new branch in Plant City on Saturday, and three more branches will be coming to the Tampa and Sarasota regions by the fall.
Citing consumer demand for physical locations and in-person customer service, TD Bank officials say they will open a Bradenton branch on Aug. 19. That branch will be Manatee County's first TD Bank location.
TD Bank will open a location in Lutz on Aug. 26 and close out this round of branch expansions in Lakewood Ranch on Oct. 14.
Currently, TD has 24 locations in the Tampa Bay region, with 10 in Hillsborough County, four in Pasco County and eight in Pinellas County.
The bank has a total of 69 locations in North-Central Florida. Statewide, the New Jersey-based banking giant has 164 locations in 125 Florida cities and towns. It has more than 1,100 locations in the United States, mostly on the East Coast.
Expanding in Central Florida, especially Tampa Bay, was an easy decision, says Randy Estrada, market president of TD Bank's North Florida department, speaking to Business Observer.
Tampa Bay and Sarasota are where "the markets yield a lot of opportunity," says Estrada, who moved to Florida in early 2022 to help expand the bank. "(The regions) really warrant our investment."
TD Bank bills itself as the nation's most convenient bank, and some locations have seven-day banking.
Estrada says the bank believes that customers are still in need of "brick and mortar" locations, and thus create demand for in-person service for their financial needs. The locations are tailored for that, says Estrada, and include desks that can rise for standing customers, or sit lower for longer transactions.
