MIDBEST BANCOMPANY OMIDBEST on dogwood tree

A Message from Bryan Cook

The MidBest Bank brand and unifying name allows us to keep our locally-run banks, focused on the community, while capitalizing on the strength of a singular name and the size of our company. It is our belief that this evolution was necessary to align our branch network more closely, increase consumer recognition of our brand, and better serve you, no matter where you may live or how you prefer to handle your finances. MidBest Bank customers now have access to more than 130 locations across the region.

As we share the MidBest Bank name, the presence in our communities is stronger than ever. The strength of community banks begin and end with our employees. The countless volunteer hours, donations, blood drives and can-do attitudes represented each and every day are a testament to this statement. We are proud to have such caring and selfless employees and are continuously looking to grow our MidBest Bank family. With their dedication and hard work, it’s more apparent than ever the statement “Strong roots. Endless possibilities.” continues to hold true – our employees are the roots in the communities we serve, and with them, possibilities are truly endless.

We will continue to work hard to meet any challenges that come our way and create value for you, our customer. You can be assured that we are constantly working to implement the right strategies for continued success. Finally, we want to thank you for your continued support.


S. Bryan Cook, President & Chief Executive Officer
