Heritage Bank will open a new branch in July, relocating to the corner of Fourth Avenue and James Street.
Jeff Deuel, president and chief operating officer, said the branch is moving due to visibility issues.
“Because we’re off the beaten path, people don’t really know we’re there,” Deuel said.
The groundbreaking is 8 a.m. Thursday, Feb. 14. The public is invited to participate, and afterward, everyone will reconvene at Panera Bread to warm up and eat snacks.
“We as an organization are excited about it, and the people in the Kent community are even more excited about it,” Deuel said.
