Foundation Financial Group Opens First of Community Retail Branches

INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 15, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Always seeking to differentiate and provide excellent customer service, a national financial services company is extending its reach into five Midwestern U.S. cities.

Foundation Financial Group is opening five retail storefront locations, filling a void left behind when many financial services companies closed their community locations during the recent recession.

The five locations are in Dayton, Ohio; Indianapolis; Kansas City, Mo.; Toledo, Ohio; and St. Paul, Minn. Designed with a community-oriented mission, the new centers allow customers to walk in and discuss mortgages, inquire about additional financial products and services, and learn more about the Foundation Financial Group team.

"Our network of retail centers has been in the planning since we conceptualized Foundation Financial Group," said Chief Executive Officer Mark W. Boyer. "The regional retail centers give us an opportunity to step out of our office towers and meet our customers face to face. It's something our employees have suggested for years. And it's all to benefit our customers."

The Indianapolis center will offer mortgage lending, insurance services and tax services. The centers in Dayton, Toledo, Kansas City and St. Paul will offer mortgage services initially. Additional financial services will be available at these locations.

The Better Business Bureau serving Metro Atlanta, Athens and northeast Georgia recognized Foundation Financial Group with a first runner-up Torch Award for Marketplace Ethics in 2011. Foundation Financial Group was named one of the "Best Companies To Work For In Florida" among large companies in the August issue of Florida Trend magazine. Earlier this year, the Atlanta Business Chronicle named Foundation Financial Group as the 15th fastest-growing company in its Pacesetter Awards. Inc. magazine named Foundation Financial Group one of the fastest-growing companies in the nation as part of the Inc. 500|5000.
