Fairpark Crossing Location will Enhance Customer Experience

JACKSON, Miss.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Trustmark announced plans today to open a new corporate office in Tupelo, Mississippi. The Fairpark Crossing office will consolidate Trustmark’s Tupelo main office operations, retail and commercial banking, mortgage and wealth management, as well as insurance services offered through Fisher Brown Bottrell, Trustmark’s insurance subsidiary.

Art Stevens, President of Mississippi for Trustmark, explained, “The investment in the Fairpark Crossing facility demonstrates Trustmark’s commitment to the Tupelo market and the community’s economic development efforts. This new office complements our four other Tupelo locations with a corporate presence that is well-aligned with our strategic initiatives for market and line of business growth.”

Set to open by year-end, the 11,152 square foot office is located at the intersection of Main Street and Commerce, in the Fairpark District, a 50-acre urban renewal development in the heart of downtown Tupelo.

“We are excited to be a part of Tupelo’s revitalization efforts,” said Charles Russell, President of Trustmark’s Tupelo market. “More importantly, this relocation will allow us to enhance our focus on our customers by providing a more stream-lined approach to meeting their financial needs.”

State-of-the art technology will be featured in the retail branch, with customer-friendly teller pods designed to offer a more personalized customer experience. A walk-up exterior ATM will further extend available banking services and will support the anticipated growth in visitors to the Main Street downtown area.

“The selection of Fairpark Crossing for Trustmark’s new offices supports the long range plans for the area,” stated Debbie Brangenberg, Director of Downtown Tupelo Main Street Association. “This new location will also be an asset to outdoor events at Fairpark, with the convenience of the permanent walk-up ATM.” Additionally, Trustmark’s conference room in the new Fairpark Crossing office will be utilized for various community meetings.

Trustmark has leased the Fairpark Crossing space from Cleveland Properties, LLC.
