Established in 1902, First South Bank is a local community bank located throughout Eastern North Carolina. Over the past 103 years, banking products and services have evolved. However, the Bank's commitment to its community has never wavered. We have always believed it is important to be a significant contributing member of our community. We know that, as a community bank, we have a responsibility to make a positive difference in the place we both live and serve, not because it is good for business, but because it is the right thing to do. First South Bank operates thirty full-service branch offices and two Loan Production Offices across North Carolina, located as far south as Wilmington and as far east as Buxton.
