Since 2000, Mark Tran has owned and operated downtown Olympia's "landmark" neighborhood convenience store, T & C Mini Mart. He attributes his success to the support of the local community.

T & C Mini Mart, also known as 4^th Avenue Food Mart, is conveniently located in downtown Olympia at 927 4^th Avenue, between Pear and Quince Street NE. Mark has plans to expand his business operations in keeping with the growth in downtown Olympia.

As any retail business owner knows, the daily demands of banking can consume valuable time. "Invaluable" is how Mark describes his relationship with Thurston First Bank. "They made switching banks easy and the convenience of the Mobile Branch has not only saved me time, but money, too. Their trained staff has gone above and beyond just mere banking assistance - offering troubleshooting tips and assistance with QuickBooks."

"Thurston First Bank is the perfect business partner."
