Jim Gowen's Company Details

Merchants and Planters Bank traces its roots back to 1946 in Tupelo, Arkansas, when the nation was recovering from World War II. Businesses and agricultural operations were expanding, and the financial needs for local farmers and merchants were also growing as the economy was on a post-war fast track. To help meet those financial needs, several community leaders had a dream of a local community-minded bank serving the local community. That philosophy began a tradition that hasn't changed in nearly 65 years. Since those early days, Merchants and Planters Bank has grown and expanded into four counties with a total of 10 banking locations.
