Alliance Bank of Arizona, a division of Western Alliance Bank, the state’s largest locally headquartered bank, announced today the opening of its newest East Valley branch location in Gilbert at the southwest corner of Market Street and Pecos Road. The goal of this new location is to bring added local and national business banking resources to this expanding part of Greater Phoenix.

The brand-new 4,500 square-foot commercial banking facility includes two drive-up lanes, a drive-thru ATM lane and a night depository. The Gilbert office will provide Western Alliance’s wide range of sophisticated banking products and solutions geared to the needs of commercial, industrial and professional businesses.

“Alliance Bank is proud to be the go-to banking resource in Arizona’s growing markets and the Town of Gilbert, which routinely ranks among the country’s fastest-growing communities,” said Don Garner, CEO of Alliance Bank of Arizona. “In Gilbert, our customers can expect exceptional local commitment, along with national resources across every business sector, and real expertise and tailored banking solutions designed for small and middle-market businesses.”

The Gilbert branch will become the seventh Alliance Bank location in greater Phoenix and third location in the East Valley, joining branches in Chandler and Mesa. With workspaces for up to 23 employees, the branch was designed by Davis Design Solutions and built by Sun State Builders, which are both long-standing clients of the bank.

“Gilbert has become a major hub for business and repeatedly receives national attention for its high quality of living, including being named one of the best places to raise a family and one of the happiest and safest places to live in the U.S.,” said Chris Call, Senior Vice President with Alliance Bank and the Regional Manager overseeing commercial lending in Gilbert. “As a Gilbert resident and now a banker based in my hometown, I know this reputation is well deserved. We look forward to serving the city’s businesses and nonprofit organizations from our new local office.”

Alliance Bank of Arizona is a valued resource for Arizona’s business, real estate, professional, municipal and nonprofit communities, with its 10 offices in Greater Phoenix, Tucson and Flagstaff along with Western Alliance’s robust national platform of specialized financial services.
