(Opelika, Ala.) — MAX celebrated the grand opening of its first Lee County branch with a
ribbon cutting ceremony in Opelika today.

and drive-thru service, and serves members in Opelika, Auburn and surrounding Lee County
communities.

statewide. Thirteen other MAX branches are in Central Alabama, with MAX’s corporate
operations headquartered in Montgomery.

“We know the residents of Lee County have lots of choices when it comes to financial
institutions, but they have not yet experienced a full-service, community-minded financial
institution like MAX,” said Matt Cox, MAX’s new Opelika member service manager . “MAX is
bringing smarter banking to the great people of Opelika, Auburn and Lee County.”

The Brickyard will serve as a hub for the tremendous opportunities being created in the area. This project represents the future of growth here in Phenix City and the entire surrounding area. New businesses will create new employment with both construction and permanent jobs. 

The Brickyard will mark another milestone in creating economic vitality along the Chattahoochee River without costing the taxpayers.
