We are First for You!
Our story began in 1876 when our first location was opened at 1 North Main in Hutchinson, KS. As times have changed so has First National Bank. What stays constant is our ability to be a source of financial strength in all the communities we serve. The First is now represented in 5 different communities with 10 locations. Our legacy has been one of trust and stability, and while we maintain those qualities our future thrives on new innovative technology for our products and services.
However, we are nothing without our customers. You are at the heart of what drives The First. Our main goal is our promise to be First for You. This is not just a tag line, but a way of life at The First.
Being First for You is represented in our Core Values:
Respect for all
Integrity to do what is right
Caring about the customers’ needs
Commitment to our community
Courage to be innovative
Being First for You is represented in our Executive Management:
“The prosperity of our patrons is the real test of any financial institution. The bottom line is that we are in business to help our customers. If the bank's customers do well, so will the bank."
— E. W. Meyer, 1939
Being First for You is represented in our Community Involvement:
It is our passion to give back and support local initiatives and businesses. We believe in reinvesting in those communities that have made The First their primary financial institution. From fall festivals, back-to-school drives, and hot dog days to speaking engagements, benefit events, and informational luncheons, our staff loves being out and about with our customers.
