A History Of Growth

Central Valley Community Bank, founded in 1979 as Clovis Community Bank, is a California State chartered bank with deposit accounts insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Bank commenced operations on January 10, 1980, in Clovis, California, with 12 professional bankers and beginning assets of $2,000,000. Currently, the Bank operates 16 full-service offices in Clovis, Fresno, Kerman, Lodi, Madera, Merced, Oakhurst, Prather, Sacramento, Stockton, and Tracy, one loan production office in Modesto, plus Commercial, Real Estate, SBA and Agribusiness Lending Departments. Investment services are provided by Investment Centers of America, and Central Valley Community Insurance Services, LLC provides financial and insurance solutions for businesses. Now with over 200 employees, and assets of nearly $750,000,000 as of June 30, 2009, Central Valley Community Bank has grown into a well-capitalized institution, with a proven track record of financial strength, security and stability. Yet despite the Bank's growth, it has remained true to its original "roots" - a commitment to the core values of integrity, trustworthiness, caring, loyalty, leadership and teamwork.

Central Valley Community Bank distinguishes itself from other financial institutions through our 30-year track record of strength, security, client advocacy and the unchanged values that have guided the Bank since our opening. The Bank's unique brand of personalized service has expanded throughout the San Joaquin Valley with 16 offices in Fresno, Madera, Merced, Stanislaus, Sacramento, and San Joaquin Counties. Recently three new offices were opened in Stockton, Lodi and Tracy, resulting from the successful acquisition of Service 1st Bancorp in November 2008. Guided by a hands-on Board of Directors and a seasoned senior management team, the Bank continues to focus on customer service and retention. The Bank has remained committed to the ongoing addition and retention of high-quality employees, as evidenced by receiving the 2007 and 2009 honor of being named one of the "Best Companies to Work For" among companies with 100 or more employees throughout a six-county area of the San Joaquin Valley. In 2008 the Bank was named as the exceptional bank in California by the Findley Reports in the category of "$600 Million to $1.2 Billion in Assets."
