Origin Bank Continues Southeast Market Expansion with Opening of Fairhope Location

Origin Bank continues to expand its Southeast market presence with the opening of its first banking center in Fairhope, Alabama. Located at 508 Fairhope Avenue, the banking center will serve as a temporary location while the bank seeks a permanent location within the community.

"We're excited to become part of the Fairhope community," said Drake Mills, chairman, president and CEO of Origin Bancorp, Inc. "This banking center is the first step in our long-term vision to build relationships and support growth in this area."

The location is managed by Chris Reynolds, a long-time local banker who joined the Origin team in 2024. Along with Assistant Manager Kimberly Wells, Chris and the team in Fairhope offer a full range of personal and business banking services. Commercial Relationship Banker Marques Ivy also maintains an office at the Fairhope Banking Center, and treasury management services are available through Kelly Reynolds.

"Fairhope is a vibrant, growing market, and we're thrilled to establish a physical location here," said Nate Sommer, president of Origin Bank's Southeast region. "We have a strong local team in place that's focused on delivering responsive, personalized service to support this community in a meaningful way."
