Dow Jones Description
The year was 1910 when the men in the photograph above gathered at the Strawberry Market in Mount Olive, North Carolina. Their local bank, The Bank of Mount Olive, was nine years old at the time, and reflected the values of the day. It was a place where their money was safe and earned good interest. A place where they were treated as friends and respected as individuals. A place where one's word was as solid as a handshake. Today, The Bank of Mount Olive is Southern Bank and Trust. Our 100-plus years of prosperity have led us to be one of the 10 largest banks in North Carolina and one of the safest, soundest banking institutions in the country. And while the men and strawberry market pictured above may only exist in the past, the values of the time they represent are alive and well at Southern Bank. Southern Bank & Trust is the third oldest state-chartered commercial bank in North Carolina. With total assets nearing $1 billion, we serve over 44 communities with 53 locations in eastern North Carolina. All but four of the communities we serve have populations of less than 5,000.
