Space Coast Credit Union (SCCU), the third-largest credit union in Florida, is set to expand its footprint into the Orlando area with the launch of two new full-service branches in Waterford Lakes and Avalon Park. This strategic move marks a significant investment in the Central Florida market, aimed at enhancing financial access and member services for the region’s growing population.
The expansion will bring approximately 10 new jobs to the Orlando community and support SCCU’s existing base of more than 19,000 members in the area. The new branches are designed to provide convenient, in-person banking options, aligning with the credit union’s commitment to personalized service and trusted financial guidance.
“At Space Coast Credit Union, we always look for opportunities to expand our branch network where it benefits our membership. That is always our first priority,” Gary Prager, Chief Strategy & Growth Officer of Space Coast Credit Union, said in a press release. “We will bring our trusted services and personalized financial solutions closer to our Orlando members, and welcome new members to our Credit Union as their Financial Watchdog. This expansion reflects our ongoing commitment to meeting our members where they are—both digitally and in the communities they call home.”
