(ROCK HILL, SC - January 8, 2016) On January 7, South State Bank hosted a grand opening for its newest office located at 222 East Main Street in Rock Hill.

'We are excited to be a part of the continued growth of Rock Hill's downtown area,' said Jay Reagan, South State Bank Piedmont regional president. 'Not only is this office larger than our former location, but it will also provide easier access and better parking for our customers.'

In addition to the current staff, the bank will have a full time consumer lender as well as a commercial lender. The new office is located 1.7 miles from the former location at 1274 East Main Street and will allow room for expansion.

'Many members of our company worked together in this building nearly 20 years ago. In addition, approximately ten members of the South State Bank team worked with Rock Hill National Bank who originally occupied the facility. Many of these people are in leadership roles in our company today,' added Tom Camp, South State Bank executive vice president.
