FORNEY, Texas – Texas Regional Bank (TRB) has opened a Loan Production Office (LPO) in Forney, TX. The office is under the leadership of James Huggins, East Dallas Regional Market President. The establishment of the LPO in Forney is a key step in TRB’s ongoing efforts to expand its services and reach across the East Dallas Region.
This move follows TRB’s acquisition of AccessBank in 2021, which added five offices to the bank’s network. In addition to Forney, the bank has plans to open several banking centers in the East Dallas region within the next 12 to 18 months.
James Huggins, the Regional Market President, brings 43 years of experience in the banking industry and a deep understanding of local market needs. “Accessible and responsible lending is important, especially now,” said Huggins. “We aim to help individuals and small businesses in Forney and nearby areas with financial solutions that fit their needs.” Huggins has lived and worked in the area for twenty-five years.
TRB will bring their community style of banking to the Forney area. “We want to be an integral part of the communities we serve,” added Huggins. This includes financial literacy workshops, community outreach programs, sponsorships, and partnerships with local businesses and non-profit organizations.
Huggins will operate in the LPO while the bank’s Forney banking center is built. Construction will start within 6 months and complete the building in 12-18 months, pending city and regulatory approval.
The Forney Loan Production Office is at 101 N FM 548 STE 103, Forney, TX 75126. LPOs can assist with personal and commercial loan requests. TRB offers mortgages, wealth management, international banking, and insurance services.
