HONOLULU–Hawaii State FCU said it will open four new branch locations inside Safeway stores on Oahu and Maui.
The new branches will open inside Safeway Kapahulu, Safeway Hawaii Kai, Safeway Kailua and Safeway Kihei, with the first in-store branch to open by the end of 2021, with the remaining three locations slated for 2022.
The Safeway branches will range in size from 281 square feet to 425 square feet, and will feature a full suite of financial services, including mortgages and investment services.
“As our credit union continues to grow, we look forward to expanding our presence in Safeway stores across Oahu and Maui to provide more convenient options to bank with us,” said Andrew Rosen, president and CEO of Hawaii State FCU. “We’re always looking for new ways to better serve our members, whether it’s through the convenience of our mobile app, to having more options for in-person banking. The decision to open branches at some of Hawaii’s most frequented Safeway store locations was a natural next step for Hawaii State FCU.”
Hawaii State FCU currently has 10 branch locations across Oahu and one branch in Kahului, Maui. The new Safeway locations will mark the credit union’s first move to the in-store branch model.
