Chase, the US consumer and commercial banking business of JPMorgan Chase & Company, has announced that it will open new full-service bank branches in 22 Albertsons stores in southern and central California by 2010, and also add about 200 employees for the new branches.
Chase is planning to hire new employees to provide personal banking, loans and financial advice to customers in Los Angeles, San Diego, Riverside, San Bernardino, Ventura and Kern counties.
The first branches are opened in Kern, San Diego, Riverside, Orange and Los Angeles Counties as Chase expands to more than 800 branches in the state by end of 2010. Branch bankers will offer customers a full range of services from checking and savings accounts to mortgages, business loans and investments.
Pablo Sanchez, region executive for Chase, said: “These new locations reaffirm our commitment to make Chase even more convenient for our customers, especially when they can get their shopping and banking done in one stop. It’s exciting to partner with Albertsons, which have earned the business of so many consumers.”
