Buckeye Community Bank opened October 12, 1999. Our mission is to provide the best possible service to our customers while charging fees substantially less than those of our competitors.
Buckeye Bank’s focus is on small to mid-sized businesses and professionals who desire or require special attention. For example, we provide off-site banking services that are conducted through our website, www.buckeyebank.com, courier service, and remote deposit capture that will deliver banking services to our customer’s business. Additionally, we offer investment, estate planning and related advice through our affiliate, Buckeye Advisors. We believe this user friendly and unique approach to solving customer’s problems will generate deeper customer relations and long-term financial rewards for our investors.
