The Colorado Bank & Trust: A Legacy of Community Banking
At Colorado Bank & Trust, we strive to be more than just a bank – we are your neighbors, with roots in La Junta since 1907 and Pueblo since 2006. For over a century, we have been a trusted partner to Arkansas Valley farmers and ranchers and to our local businesses, helping drive the economic heartbeat of Otero and Pueblo County.
Our focus is clear: supporting commercial and agricultural success in our communities. We offer flexible commercial loans, equipment financing, specialized agricultural financing, and cash flow management, all designed to understand the needs of our producers and business owners. Whether you are a family-owned ranch expanding your herd or a farmer growing your operation and adjusting your product mix to navigate import competition and labor market cost increases, we provide tailored financial solutions to fuel your growth and profitability.
As a community bank in Southern Colorado, we take pride in knowing our customers by name and the history that has brought your banking relationship to our doorstep. Our team is experienced and offers personalized service, local expertise, and a deep commitment to the industries that have sustained our communities – agriculture, construction, retail, and small-scale manufacturing. We are here to help you overcome the challenges of today’s markets, seize the opportunities you create, and build your own legacy of success.
Rooted in values of family, community, trust, and integrity, our 4th-generation family-owned Colorado Bank & Trust reinvests in our Southern Colorado home. We support our local schools, business initiatives and farms. When our communities are successful, we all thrive. We offer competitive rates, online banking tools, and a partnership you can count on to grow with, season after season, year after year.
We are proud to expand our legacy of service to Buena Vista, Wiley, and Lamar, continuing our commitment to building your legacy.
GIVING BACK TO OUR COMMUNITIES
We would like to thank everyone who helped and donated to our 2024 Blessing Bag Fundraiser!
We assembled 50 bags (25 for women and 25 for men) to donate to the Arkansas Valley Kitchen of Kindness, a non-profit organization that is dedicated to helping those struggling by providing warm meals on a weekly basis. We didn’t collect donations this year, but the employees had in-kind donations of $1,150.00 towards this project and the bank made a donation of $500.
