“First Heritage was an integral partner in all my projects over the
last several years. The staff at the Bank branches have always been
extremely helpful and thoughtful in their advice and services. First Heritage' vast experience across the spectrum of industries has proven to
be a gamechanger in how I’ve been able to take an idea to reality.
First Heritage’ expertise has allowed my wife (Monika) and I to build
cornerstone businesses here in Central Pennsylvania and beyond. From the
restoration of the Harrisburg Beach Club on City Island, the Atlas
Building redevelopment in Camp Curtin, the Meeka Jewelry stores in Camp
Hill, PA and flagship store in Newport, RI the team at First Heritage has
been with us from the starting concept to the ribbon cutting.”
Adam Maust, Harrisburg Revitalization Developer
"We had a dream to open PepperPot Jamaican Restaurant to share
Caribbean food and our culture with our central PA neighbors, and the
pandemic inspired us to make a change. First Heritage went above and beyond
with our SBA loan and gave us a life-changing opportunity. Their
customer service was fantastic, professional, and respectful. We would
recommend First Heritage to the world!"
