Kitsap Bank Opens a New Branch on Pacific Avenue in Downtown Tacoma

Kitsap Bank celebrated its newest branch opening in Tacoma, achieving 21 locations across Western Washington.  
The celebration of this business milestone took place on Thursday, February 13, with a ribbon cutting. Though it started to snow, attendance was high with over 30 people gathered to recognize Kitsap Bank’s operational achievement.

Guests mixed and mingled before the Chief Executive Officer Steven Politakis gathered everyone for remarks. Politakis gave a sincere testimony of his time with Kitsap Bank and his fellow executive team while he gave shoutouts to employees and thanked them for their dedication to the bank. Politakis was joined by Olympic Bancorp Board of Directors’ Chairwoman, Cydly Langer Smith, who shared the same sentiment.

Recalling the annual staff retreat that generated the idea of acquiring the location Politakis said, “[I heard who owned the building] and I thought ‘Hey I know those guys. They are super smart...they are really good guys...and they love Tacoma – we can do business with those guys! This is great.’ [We got connected], put together a lease and we are off and running.”
​ 
Chamber Board Chairwoman, Kierra Phifer, initiated the ribbon cutting in front of the branch’s main entrance. Attendees were invited to sign the framing matte commemorating the ceremony as they enjoyed bites during the open house. 
Please join the Chamber in welcoming Kitsap Bank to downtown Tacoma! ​
