Treynor, IA - TS Bank plans to open its eighth banking location in June 2020. This location will open as a loan production office in Ames, Iowa, located at 402 Lincoln Way, with aspirations of growing into a full-service branch location in the future.
TS Bank began exploring expanding to Ames in early 2019 and has worked over the past year to identify and acquire the location. The office will receive new exterior signage along with a video ATM in 2021 and staffing will expand at this location as market growth occurs in the future.
The bank building, built in 1996, boasts 5,000 sq. ft. of retail banking and office space and was acquired by TS Banking Group in December 2019 from Great Southern Bank. The property is located at the corner of Lincoln Way and Washington Avenue, positioned between major thoroughfares Duff and Grand Avenues.
TS Bank is part of TS Banking Group, a joint venture between Treynor Bancshares, Inc., the bank holding company of Treynor State Bank (TS Bank), with banking assets of $365 million, and TS Contrarian Bancshares, Inc., the bank holding company of The Bank of Tioga (North Dakota), with banking assets of $334 million and First National Bank (Illinois) with banking assets of $177 million.

Expanding to the Ames market provides TS Bank with a central Iowa location to assist in future acquisitions and expansion across Iowa. This venture will allow TS Bank, in the future, to serve clients and grow loans, deposits, investment and wealth management clients in the central Iowa corridor.
