Goldenwest Holds Ribbon Cuttings for Three New Branches

Ogden, UTAH: October 4, 2023 – On September 29th, Goldenwest Credit Union held ribbon cuttings and grand opening celebrations for two new branches in Northern Utah, located in West Jordan and Spanish Fork. It was the third ribbon cutting in eight days for the Credit Union. A ribbon cutting and grand opening celebration was held for the recently opened Goldenwest branch in Post Falls, Idaho on September 21st.

All of the locations provide a full range of financial products and services including vehicle loans, mortgages, lines of credit, free checking, instant-issue Visa cards, business services, and insurance.

“While we are always improving remote member services through online banking, the mobile app, the virtual branch, and the contact center, we understand that our members truly value the convenience of walking into a brick-and-mortar branch and speaking face-to-face with our Credit Union staff about their finances,” remarked Kerry H. Wahlen, Goldenwest President/CEO. “Our retail branch locations reinforce our commitment to support and engage with our members, local residents, and businesses on a personal level.”
