Blue Ridge Bank's Rich History
Blue Ridge Bank was chartered and organized in 1893 as a state institution under the title "Page Valley Bank of Virginia." At the time of its organization, it was the only bank in Page County, Virginia.
On October 15, 2011, the name was changed from The Page Valley Bank to Blue Ridge Bank. Since then, our footprint has grown to cover the entire state with 26 branches in Virginia and one in North Carolina.
Blue Ridge Bank is extremely proud of its more than a century of customer-based service and looks forward to serving its current and new customers for many years to come, with the attention and service that only a locally owned independent community bank can provide.
Thank You From Us To You
As long as we've served the community, we realize that it would never be possible without the dedicated support and longstanding commitment of Blue Ridge community members. From all of us at Blue Ridge Bank, we'd like to say thank you for the past 130 years and would like to reiterate our never-wavering commitment for the next 130!
