The Valley Bank team celebrated its Melbourne branch grand opening with a ribbon-cutting. Team members include: Kimberly Haggerty, Matthew Osterloh, Ramon Alarcon and Melany White.

The new location expands Valley's presence in Brevard County and includes a team of three bankers, each with deep community ties and more than 100 years of combined experience in banking. The team is led by Kimberly Haggerty, First Vice President and Brevard Market Manager II at Valley Bank, who joined the bank in 2021 and has more than 20 years of branch management experience. The branch currently serves a portfolio of consumer, small business and commercial clients.

"The branch brings a unique relationship-banking approach to clients in Brevard County, an expansive market with strong potential along the Space Coast," Haggerty said. "Located along the Wickham Road corridor with convenient access to I-95 and U.S. 1, this location provides clients with a place to meet in-person, discuss their financial goals and build lasting relationships while strengthening our connection to the growing community."

Brevard County continues to experience strong economic growth driven by the region's aerospace and defense industry, expanding healthcare sector and a diverse base of small and mid-sized businesses. Valley's Melbourne branch was designed to support relationship-focused banking conversations, featuring private offices, collaborative meeting space and an open layout that allows bankers to work closely with clients.

Valley's Melbourne team has longstanding relationships with the local community that extend beyond the branch's initial opening earlier this year. During the March 31 grand opening celebration, the team presented the United Way of Brevard with a $10,000 check to support its mission of providing safety net services and proactive programs to individuals and families.

"The Melbourne team looks forward to welcoming clients to the new branch and deepening connections in the community," said Mark Beausoleil, Executive Vice President and Director of Retail Banking at Valley. "Their experience in the Brevard County market and Valley's high-touch approach to banking will help meet client needs, from the Melbourne community's consumer and small business banking needs to more complex commercial, HOA and treasury solutions."

The 2,000-square-foot branch includes private offices, meeting space and an on-site ATM. The branch is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. For more information, call the branch at 321-599-1939 or email at khaggerty@valley.com.
