ALMA, MI – Commercial Bank has reached an agreement with the FDIC to acquire all the deposits and loans of MainStreet Savings Bank, FSB - Hastings, MI. Beginning Saturday morning, the Hastings headquarters as well as the branch in Lake Odessa, MI will open as branches of Commercial Bank.

“We are excited to bring MainStreet Savings Bank customers into the Commercial Bank family” said Jeffrey S. Barker, President and CEO of Commercial Bank. “Commercial Bank has always been known for our conservative banking and business practices, which is what made this acquisition possible. We believe that our employees and the Barry County Community will greatly benefit from our “making a difference in our community” culture and our full line of banking products and services.”
