Trust company triples space on Main Street in Sarasota

A trust and wealth management company that originally set up shop in Sarasota to serve New Yorkers 15 years ago has moved into a new office downtown to accommodate growth.

Canandaigua National Trust Company of Florida (CNTF) relocated Nov. 4 to the Sarasota City Center building at 1819 Main Street. The new office is a few blocks from its old location at 1586 Main Street and has triple the space, according to a statement from the company. 

The expansion is designed to accommodate CNTF's growing book of business and allow for room to spread out as market share increases, the company says. CNTF established its presence in Sarasota in 2009 as a growing number of New Yorkers opted to move to Florida, and the company aimed to meet customers where they were. CNTF is a subsidiary of Canandaigua National Corp., headquartered in Canandaigua, New York, which also owns full-service financial institution Canandaigua National Bank & Trust.
