A new Bank Independent “Team Campus” in Muscle Shoals, featuring a nearly 100,000-square-foot main building and 12,000-square-foot warehouse on 50 acres, has opened.
The complex does not replace any existing Bank Independent offices. It’s a centralized workplace for 234 employees from five locations across Lauderdale and Colbert counties.
The company celebrated the opening of the new campus on Monday.
“When Thomas Edison and Henry Ford visited the Shoals in 1921, they envisioned a city stretching 75 miles east along the Tennessee River. Later, Presidents Roosevelt, in January of 1933, and Kennedy, in May of 1963, reminded us that prosperity is built on collaboration. Today, Bank Independent is proud to honor that legacy as we open our Team Campus — created to serve our team, customers and communities for generations to come,” said Macke Mauldin, chief executive officer of Bank Independent.
Penny Camp, Bank Independent’s chief administrative officer, said the Team Campus is “an investment in our people.”
“We wanted to create a space where our team members feel supported, connected and equipped to do their very best work,” Camp said. “When we give our teams the environment and resources they need to thrive, it naturally strengthens the service we provide to our customers.”
The main building includes four floors, 18 conference rooms, four wellness rooms, six patios, fitness center, production studio and more.
