BOM Bank to Celebrate Grand Opening of New Operations Complex with Ribbon Cutting Ceremony
Natchitoches, LA, March 2, 2026: The Natchitoches Area Chamber of Commerce is proud to partner with BOM Bank to celebrate the grand opening of the bank's new Operations Complex with an official Ribbon Cutting Ceremony on Thursday, March 12, from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. at 1029 Keyser Avenue in Natchitoches. 

Established in 1903 as the Bank of Montgomery in Montgomery, Louisiana, BOM built its foundation on serving rural communities with personal, relationship-driven banking. The institution later expanded into Natchitoches, relocating its headquarters to better serve a broader base of individuals and businesses. Over the years, the bank has continued to grow and rebrand, expanding into additional Louisiana markets and eastern Texas while remaining rooting in its commitment to community banking. 

The new Operations Complex represents a significant milestone in the bank's continued growth. Following the public announcement that BOM has surpassed $1 billion in assets, the institution experienced rapid expansion that created the need for additional operational space. To meet that demand, the bank purchased and completely renovated a former medical office building on Keyser Avenue, transforming it into a modern, collaborative workspace designed to support its growing team and evolving needs. 

The newly remodeled facility now houses several key departments, including Accounting, Marketing, Human Resources, Credit, Compliance, Training, Branch Administration, Business Development, Operations and Loan Administration along with the office of President & CEO Ken Hale. The building also features a spacious conference room for meetings and employee events, as well as a newly constructed vault supported by freshly poured concrete, an impressive addition that reflects both security and long-term investment in the community. 

The March 12th Ribbon Cutting will be a celebratory community event featuring guided tours of the new complex, food trucks, live music by the NSU Band, prizes and appearances by NSU Pom Line and representatives from the Miss Louisiana Pageant. 

Community members, business leaders, and residents are invited to attend and help commemorate this exciting new chapter for BOM Bank. The event is free and open to the public. 

The Natchitoches Area Chamber of Commerce helps foster a thriving community through transformative leadership, collaboration, and innovation. The Chamber is committed to championing business, connecting community, and cultivating growth in Natchitoches Parish.
