Palmetto State Bank, headquartered in Hampton, South Carolina, was founded in 1907 by R. O. Bowden. In this time of mega banks, Palmetto State Bank is the last community bank in Hampton County. We have grown from a bank with $2 million in assets in a sparse building with bare light bulbs hanging from the ceiling to a nearly one quarter billion dollar institution with five branches in Hampton and Beaufort counties.

We at Palmetto State Bank credit our exceptional growth to a strong economy and the fact that we have never lost sight of what is important to us...our customers. We understand the people and their needs better than any big, out-of-state bank ever could. We deliver the kind of service that everyone thought was a thing of the past. Because our customers are also our neighbors, we want to give them the absolute best one-on-one service every time we interact.

For nearly 100 years, Palmetto State Bank has served our community. A trusted neighbor, through good times and bad, we've been here, lending a hand, helping businesses and families grow. After all, we're your community bank and we've been helping our neighbors since 1907.
