Goldenwest Opens Two New Branches In Idaho

Boise and Eagle, IDAHO: March 16, 2023 – On March 15th, Goldenwest Credit Union held ribbon cuttings and grand opening celebrations for two new branches in Idaho. Both 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.

Boise, Idaho

Located in the downtown area at 355 South 3rd Street, the Boise branch serves members working in the heart of the city as well as local businesses with convenient access to Goldenwest products and services. The recently remodeled building provides a welcoming place for personal service inside its lobby and offices. The Goldenwest team at the Boise location is led by Crystal Howard.

Eagle, Idaho

Serving members in the Eagle and Meridian communities at 6620 North Linder Road, the Eagle branch features an inviting lobby, private offices, drive-up lanes, and an ATM. The branch offers products and services for both individual members and local businesses. Brad McMurdie has been selected as the manager of the Eagle branch.

Expansion into Idaho has been part of Goldenwest’s long-term growth plans for more than a decade. Goldenwest first entered the Idaho market last year with a branch opening in Rexburg in February 2022.

“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 want the option to walk into a brick-and-mortar branch and speak personally with our Credit Union staff about their finances,” remarked Kerry H. Wahlen, Goldenwest President and CEO. “As our membership base has grown in the Gem State over the past several years, we knew it was the right time to expand our branch network into Idaho.”

The Utah-based Credit Union is in the planning stages of adding more branches throughout Idaho, including the Post Falls location scheduled to open in the second quarter of 2023.

In addition to serving existing Goldenwest members, the Credit Union is welcoming new members at all of its Idaho branch locations.
