Olympia, Washington-based Heritage Bank has moved into a new space in Spokane’s North Bank neighborhood, cementing its expansion into the Inland Northwest.

Heritage Bank's new commercial banking team will operate out of an office on the second floor of the Papillon Building, at 908 N. Howard, says senior vice president and commercial team leader James Krejci.

Krejci says the five-person team will offer commercial banking services by appointment only during normal business hours, Monday to Friday.

He told the Journal last month that the 98-year-old financial institution has been eyeing the Spokane market for years, as it aligns with the company's mission and business goals.

Heritage Bank is a wholly owned subsidiary of Heritage Financial Corp. The bank's existing footprint includes 50 commercial banking centers and retail branches located in Washington, Idaho, and Oregon.
