Zenith Bank (Ghana) Limited has celebrated a significant achievement with the official opening of its 42nd physical business location in Ashaiman. This new branch, located at the Ashaiman Shell Filling Station on the Ashaiman-Klagon road, is a demonstration of the bank’s commitment to expanding its reach and bringing its services closer to communities.
The Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer of Zenith Bank, Henry Onwuzurigbo, emphasized that the new branch reflects the Bank’s philosophy of being wherever its services are needed. He acknowledged the impact of digital banking but underlined the importance of maintaining brick-and-mortar branches to ensure the benefits of human interaction are not lost in the banking industry.
The choice of Ashaiman for the new branch was strategic, considering its dense population, multicultural composition, and thriving micro, small, and medium-sized business ecosystem. The bustling manufacturing sector in Ashaiman encompassing textiles, agricultural inputs, metalwork, and others presented a compelling opportunity for Zenith Bank to contribute to the local economy.
Mr. Onwuzurigbo also hinted at another branch opening in the pipeline, reaffirming the bank’s commitment to wider accessibility. The event attracted a notable assembly of dignitaries representing various sectors and institutions within the Ashaiman community, including the Market Queen of Ashaiman – Mrs. Getrude Amui. She commended Zenith Bank’s approach, citing positive interactions with leadership, transparent communication, and visible growth, factors that instill confidence and encourage wider participation in the formal financial sector.
The event was met with enthusiasm and showcased the bank’s commitment to delivering an exceptional customer experience at all times. This milestone represents Zenith Bank’s dedication to fostering financial inclusion and supporting economic development in local communities across Ghana.
