Company History
One hundred ten years ago, 19 enterprising Bay St. Louis, Mississippi, men and women responded to South Mississippi's bustling turn-of-the-century economy by establishing the Hancock County Bank on core values of honor & integrity, strength & stability, commitment to service, teamwork, and personal responsibility. From that point, our company assumed a pivotal role in helping the people of our communities achieve their financial goals and dreams and in facilitating commerce and opportunities for people across our greater Gulf Coast.
