Willamette Valley Bank: Celebrating 25 Years of Community Banking Excellence Twenty-five years ago, a group of local business owners set out to create something better. Frustrated by the level of service at their existing banks, they decided to build a bank that prioritized relationships, responsiveness, and community. That vision became Willamette Valley Bank. Since then, our growth has been driven not by ambition, but by the trust and demand of our customers. We’ve expanded to meet the needs of the communities we serve, always with a focus on personal service and local decision-making. National recognition has followed. Willamette Valley Bank has been recognized as one of the Top Performing Community Banks in the nation by the Independent Community Bankers of America (ICBA) every year from 2019 through 2024, a reflection of our consistent financial strength and dedication to service. But our proudest achievement isn’t found in rankings, it’s in the neighborhoods we serve and the people who call them home. Friday Morning = Greeters! Start your Friday off right with the Salem Area Chamber of Commerce’s biggest weekly networking event! Greeters brings together 150+ local business professionals every week to connect, share, and grow together. It’s high-energy, relationship-focused, and a great way to keep your business top-of-mind in the community. Hosted by a different member business each week, Greeters is every Friday from 8:30–10:00 AM. Pro Tip: Arrive around 8:00 AM to snag a good parking spot, grab some food, and get in a few extra conversations before we officially kick off. Raffle Fun: Businesses are encouraged to bring 1 prize valued at $10+ (the Host can bring as many as they like)! To Enter: Drop your business card + $1 in the raffle for a chance to win! (No change please). Bring your business cards, your best smile, and get ready to make connections that count.    Want to receive Greeters text notification?

why us? Local Banking. Local Home Loans. Over 20 years ago, local business owners were not satisfied with the service level they were receiving from their respective banks, so they chose to be the change. Since then, WVBK has expanded through customers' demand rather than a need to grow. Over the past several years, Willamette Valley Bank has been acknowledged nationally for our financial strength and performance. We were recognized as the Nation's #1 Community Bank in American Banker's list of Top 200 Community Banks for 2019, 2020, 2021, and 2022. However, our real badge of honor is the communities we serve and the people that make it home.
