New location builds on Huntington’s growing presence in the Carolinas
The Huntington National Bank has officially opened a new flagship, full-service branch in Winston-Salem, marking another milestone in its strategic expansion across North Carolina and South Carolina. The newly constructed, freestanding branch at 578 S. Westview Drive reflects Huntington’s continued investment in the Carolinas and its long-term commitment to community-centered banking.
The branch is fully operational, offering access to tellers, personal bankers, and ATMs, along with a dedicated Wealth Hub located within the building.

This location is part of Huntington’s previously announced plan to open approximately 55 branches across North Carolina and South Carolina. With the addition of Winston-Salem, the bank now operates six full-service branches serving five markets across the two states, steadily strengthening its regional presence.
Trent Holland, regional president for North Carolina and South Carolina, described the flagship branch as a meaningful investment in the local community. He emphasized that Huntington’s expansion in the Carolinas reflects its people-first philosophy and dedication to delivering customer-centered service in growing markets.
Designed with a modern layout and welcoming atmosphere, the Winston-Salem branch aims to create a convenient and engaging banking experience. Beyond transactional services, customers can access tailored financial advice and guidance intended to support every stage of their financial journey.
Chris Bryan, Triad market president and longtime local resident, noted that the branch opening deepens Huntington’s roots in the area. He highlighted the bank’s intention to build lasting relationships within the community while delivering exceptional service standards.

Huntington’s Carolinas expansion aligns with its broader national growth strategy. In February, the bank completed its merger with Cadence Bank, a regional institution with approximately 400 branches across Texas and the South. The merger established Huntington as the 10th-largest bank in the United States, with approximately $279 billion in assets, significantly strengthening its platform for organic growth.
Earlier this year, Huntington also completed its conversion of Veritex Community Bank following its previously announced combination with Veritex Holdings, Inc. The transaction accelerates Huntington’s growth in Texas, particularly in the Dallas-Fort Worth and Houston markets.
