MISSION

Inspire and empower our team to enrich and invest in every relationship by exceeding expectations. 


Guided By Values

Despite CVCB’s growth and success, it has remained true to its founding vision and commitment to the core values of teamwork, caring, inclusive, excellence, accountability and integrity. The Company believes that accountable corporate behavior is essential for a community bank, and works hard to contribute to a more equitable, resilient future for clients, team members, shareholders and the communities it serves.


Shaped By History

CVCB’s history has been written by many hands, but with one vision: to help businesses and communities succeed by exceeding expectations at every opportunity.

The Central Valley Community Bank you see today is the product of that history – the embodiment of the vision and values upon which it was established in 1979. The Company opened its doors on January 10, 1980, in the Fresno County city of Clovis, with 12 professional bankers and assets of $2,000,000.

The Company’s founders were a diverse group of local business owners (including a few former bankers) who lived in the region and knew first-hand how a true community bank would benefit this unique area.

They envisioned a community bank that would invest in and grow the county’s distinctive communities, with Banking Centers that would employ service-driven professional bankers who understood the businesses and needs of their communities. What started in Clovis expanded to the Central Sierra communities of Shaver Lake and Prather, then to Fresno and along the CA Highway 99 corridor to Greater Sacramento in the north and Visalia in the south. The founders’ vision had been fulfilled, and continues to be realized in CVCB’s daily operations.


Driven By Community Support

As a community bank, CVCB is closely connected with its communities where team members live, work and raise their families and wants them to grow stronger and more successful. To achieve this, CVCB supports a wide variety of community organizations with leadership involvement, financial donations, volunteerism and financial education.


Inspired By The Future

As CVCB reflects on its long history and how its legacy of service and vision has shaped the Company to this day, there is abundant reason to be excited about its future. Guided by the Company’s proven leadership and Board of Directors, CVCB’s greatest days lie ahead. The Company is honored to share those days with the team members, clients, investors and communities whose support is appreciated and valued.
