Letter from our President

Welcome to the Peoples Bank of Kankakee County website. I am glad you are checking us out!

I’m often asked about what’s different about Peoples Bank; and my answer: we are small but mighty!

When you bank with us, you get all the personalized service that you expect from a community bank with deep roots in our community. We answer our phones, texts, and emails. You’ll never have to wait in a long line, and we have friendly personal service that puts you first…always.

Founded in 1962 by my grandfather, Romy Hammes, Peoples Bank remains a family owned business that works with its customers the old fashioned way: engaging customers with straightforward options, integrity, and professionalism.

As a customer, you’ll have access to all the latest technology that you expect to make your banking and your life easier. And, I think you’ll agree, that we have products that fit all lifestyles, ages, and needs.

Thank you for thinking of us, and thank you for checking our website. We hope to see you soon!

All best,

Jeff Hammes
