Equal Housing Lender. First Port City Bank's mission is to be the premier bank in our community by delivering professional banking services at competitive prices while providing our shareholders a fair return on their investment. Founded in 1974, First Port City Bank was formed by a group of local business people who believed that the owners of a financial service organization should be made up of

friends and neighbors within the community. Since opening its doors on October 7, 1974, the owners (over 300 local stockholders) have watched the institution steadily grow year after year, from one million dollars in assets to 560 million. But one thing hasn't changed. The Bank’s owners have never lost their vision to keep the organization locally held and locally operated. As a result, today First Port City is the oldest independent bank headquartered in Bainbridge, Georgia.
