FDIC-Insured - Backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. GovernmentPaving the Way to the Future
Sierra Santa Fe (SSF), a fourth-generation paving company in Ridgefield, Washington, evolved from the Zimmerly family dairy farm into excavation, rock, and paving. Over the years, SSF has contributed significantly to the Pacific Northwest infrastructure via local railroads and highways. David Zimmerly's sons, Paul and Parker, and his nephew, Zach, now lead the business.
When David was seeking a Vancouver business bank, the decision hinged on one essential factor - the strength of his relationship with his banking representative, Justin White. For David, banking isn't merely about financial transactions—it's about trust, reliability, and understanding. Having worked with Justin before, David readily moved his business to PWB when Justin joined the bank.
