Albert D. Hanser, Founder and Chairman of The Sanibel Captiva Trust Company has announced the purchase of the former Bank of America building at 2450 Periwinkle Way on Sanibel.

 

The 7,767 square foot building was built in 1988 as a full-service bank building in a prime location with ample parking.  “Thanks to the ongoing confidence of our dedicated clients, The Sanibel Captiva Trust Company has grown with the resident population of the islands over the last 30 years,” said Hanser.  “Our current space on Palm Ridge Road is at capacity and this new location will meet our needs for many years to come.”

 

The building will receive a complete external update and the inside will have a total redesign to maximize space for all current employees and room for multiple key hires in the future.  Terence M. Igo, CEO of The Trust Company said, “We plan to make our new home very comfortable for our clients and employees alike.  Preparing for growth with additional offices, flexible meeting space and a convenient, accessible location is all part of our strategy to meet the needs of our clients, providing them with the quality experience they have come to expect.”
