Recently, Farmers and Merchants National Bank (FMB), in partnership with the City of O’Fallon and Poettker Construction, a member of multiple AGC chapters, broke ground on a new location for FMB in O’Fallon, Ill. This 4,000 -sf facility, part of the Four Points Center development, will be the bank’s seventh area location. The project is anticipated for completion in fall 2021.

“Farmers and Merchants National Bank is excited to bring our services to the O’Fallon Community with the help of the City of O’Fallon and Poettker Construction,” states Stephen Greene, President of Farmers and Merchants National Bank. “We are committed to providing exceptional services with our traditional family and community banking values. As we continue to grow and achieve success, we are looking forward to stepping into new communities with our quality products and great customer service.”

FMB currently has 6 locations in St. Clair and Washington counties in Illinois. The addition of the O’Fallon, Ill. service area is conveniently located to provide customers with an upgraded banking experience and easy access for our local customers in St. Clair County and at Scott Air Force Base. The new building consists of metal stud walls, brick masonry walls, thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO) roofing and shingled roofing; and features two drive-thru lanes.
