This week the Chamber Spotlight features GreenPoin

This week the Chamber Spotlight features GreenPoint Ag. Farming has experienced significant change in recent decades, and GreenPoint Ag is a reflection of that change. In 2020, they were formed when the agronomy operations of Agri-AFC, GreenPoint Ag and Tennessee Farmers Cooperative’s wholesale agronomy business were combined.

While they are a new company, roots are deep and date to the 1930s. Over those years they’ve gone through acquisitions and name changes, and have done what’s necessary to best serve members and customers.

While the company is new, the business and members are not. GreenPoint Ag is owned by three cooperatives, Alabama Farmers Cooperative, Tennessee Farmers Cooperative and Winfield United, all of which have a rich legacy of serving farmers and rural communities.

Through all the changes, their business strength has consistently been their people and the relationships they have with customers. Their rich history and the pride of ownership that exists amongst member-owners drives them to remain competitive and provide exceptional service to the ultimate customer, the American Farmer.

The knowledgeable people here at Greenpoint Ag Donalsonville location value their farmer customers. Greenpoint Ag is committed to helping the growers. Agriculture is their passion. Their success is GreenPont Ag’s. Farming is a hands-on profession,

Here at the Donalsonville location they have a wide Variety of your agriculture needs, just give them a call and with the help of Seth Johnson (store manager) , Rock Holt (warehouse manager), Don Jarvis (salesman),Boyd Pepper (salesman) they will be glad to supply you with your needs. They thank you Donalsonville and the surrounding areas for your Business.

Good Morning!

This week the Chamber spotlights First Port City Bank. First Port City Bank was founded in 1974 by a group of local business people who believed that the owners of a financial institution should be made up of friends and neighbors within the community. Their roots run deep, and they are grateful for the tremendous support received. While many things have changed over 47 years, operating as a true community bank is one thing that has remained constant. They pride themselves on serving their wonderful community in an effort to help improve the quality of life for everyone.

At First Port City Bank they strive to provide the very best service for each and every customer, and are constantly looking for ways to improve your banking experience and exceed your expectations. They are consistently ranked as one of the top community banks in the nation, and offer many products and services that are typically only offered by larger, regional or national banks.

In 2017 First Port City Bank expanded its banking operations into the Donalsonville market. In November of 2020, Branch Manager – La Toya Fennell (24 Year Banker) and Commercial Loan Officer - Dave Fain (15 Year Banker) join First Port City Bank. In January 2021, First Port City Bank purchased Ponder Enterprises-Webb House Property and started renovations on the historic building. In July of 2021 renovations were completed and the new Donalsonville Branch opened to public.

The new full service branch now offers easier access in and out of the bank, more parking, new drive thru-service, 24 Hour ATM with Check Deposit and also an adjustable screen for those larger work trucks. For more information, visit www.firstportcity.com.
