As part of plans to engage with stakeholders and announce a new addition to its network of branches, FBNBank Ghana on Saturday, July 17, 2023 embarked on a health walk as part of its activities to create awareness of its new branch in Tema. It is the third service point in Tema after the Community One branch and the GPHA Agency. The new branch is located close to Hotel Joe Carl at Community 6 on the Hospital Road in the Tema metropolis. Staff converged on the new branch’s forecourt and walked through principal streets of Tema.
The walk brought together Management, Staff, family, and friends of the bank, and lasted a little over two hours – covering over seven kilometres. It provided participants the opportunity to distribute literature on products and services to residents, open accounts and promote the bank’s business to residents in the Tema metropolis.
The Managing Director/Chief Executive-FBNBank Ghana, Victor Yaw Asante, delivering an address after the walk said: “The walk was to create awareness of the new branch in the community and announce our presence here as a bank. This is just not a branch; it will also be a hub for this side of the Greater Accra Region. There is also a dual-purpose lounge where the needs of clients will be attended to. FBNBank has over the years placed its customers at the heart of everything that we do, and this new branch in Tema will focus on the efforts to bring banking services closer to the doorsteps of our customers and prospects”.
Also speaking at the walk was Head of Retail Banking, Allen Quaye, who said: “The main reason for the walk was to create awareness of the branch and also promote the FBNBank brand. Aside from this, the other benefit is to burn calories through this 7-kilometre walk; which will physically get us into shape so that we are able to work better. On this note, I want to thank all staff who took time off their busy weekend schedules to attend this walk to enhance team spirit and increase productivity”.
