TD Canada Trust opens new concept branch in Kemptville's growing community

OTTAWA, Sept. 25, 2011 /CNW/ - TD Canada Trust is proud to join the community of North Grenville with the opening of its first branch in Kemptville, Ontario. Located at Colonnade Drive and Wellington Road, the 5,000 square foot branch opened its doors today and welcomed Sunday banking to local TD Canada Trust customers.

"We're incredibly excited to be a part of such a wonderful and growing community and celebrate the opening of our new branch with Sunday banking hours," says Kimberly Bologna, Branch Manager, TD Canada Trust. "This new branch is designed to ensure that our customers have a comfortable banking experience from the moment they walk in the door, whether they're here for everyday banking, to meet with an advisor or to inquire about a loan."

Features of the new branch include:

• A Community Boardroom designed for use by groups of customers including families, businesses and not-for-profit groups. This room is available free-of-charge and includes business services such as video conferencing capabilities and a printer.
• An open concept design that helps TD serve customers better by moving financial specialists out from behind desks directly to the customers.
• Digital Displays mounted throughout the branch to provide customers with current information about TD products and services
• A Customer Lounge with a coffee station lets customers wait in comfort if they arrive early for an appointment or are waiting for their friends or family to complete their banking
