Androscoggin Bank is closing its branch at 12 Subaru Drive in Auburn on April 30. It comes as the bank expands its footprint in other parts of the region, including opening a new commercial banking center in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, and a business development in Guilford, Maine.
Chief Executive Officer Neil Kiely told MaineBiz in a recent interview the closure in Auburn is simply a business decision.
“This consolidation allows us to better allocate our people and resources to ensure we continue to best meet the needs of our clients and employees,” Kiely is quoted as saying.
Nicole Haggerty, Androscoggin Bank’s senior vice president and director of marketing, said there are four branches in Lewiston and Auburn and an operations center in Lewiston, and the Subaru Drive branch is just three miles from another branch. She noted customers use the other three locations more.
They are 683 Minot Ave. in Auburn and 30 Lisbon St. and 505 Sabattus St., both in Lewiston.
