It isn’t by chance that arguably the most stunning building in Manteca was built by the Bank of Stockton.The 11,750-square-foot glass and concrete structure built in 1997 at 660 North Main Street that makes extensive use of redwood reflects what CEO Douglas M. Eberhardt calls “Bank of Stockton’s commitment to the communities we serve.”That commitment is something that Amy Kieffer who serves as the community branch manager sees when she passes the countless farms, businesses, and homes of customers that Bank of Stockton has partnered with as a full-serve bank to help build the community.“It’s what I like about working for Bank of Stockton,” said Kieffer who has 40 years in the banking industry and has been a Manteca resident since 1984. “They know the community they serve. Loan decisions are made locally in Stockton and not in (another state).”That deep sense of community commitment is what Eberhardt said has allowed Bank of Stockton to grow and thrive for the past 150 years.“Our job is to serve our customers and the community,” Eberhardt noted.
