CENTERSTATE BANK

CenterState Bank was started by a group of bankers and entrepreneurs over 25 years ago with 3 separate banks in Polk, Osceola and Pasco Counties with the history of quality service and community focus. Our core values at CenterState focus on themes of sustainability, a long -term horizon and the career development of our team. The group of bankers came together around the belief that local ownership and local management would translate into a better bank. Through their vision and investment, a bank was born.
