Locally Owned, Family Strong, Here to Stay
The leadership history of Amarillo National Bank is an unbroken family tree. They've never sold out and never intend to. It began in 1892, when cattleman and early Amarillo settler B.T. Ware founded the bank that would become Amarillo National. His descendants have kept Amarillo National Bank in the family ever since.
We remain family-owned to this day, with no outside shareholders. This allows us to focus on the long term, not next quarter. Customer service still comes first. Community support is a priority.
The Ware family’s time-tested, conservative leadership means continuity and stability for our customers. We’ve seen good times. We’ve endured the bad. Through it all, we’ve stayed true to our family values and to the communities that make Texas a great place to live, work and do business.

A People Business and a Family Business
Known as much for their warm, personable service as their delicious food, Chick-fil-A has come a long way since their humble beginnings, when S. Truett Cathy opened the first Chick-fil-A Restaurant in Atlanta in 1967.
Truett always maintained he was in the people business, prioritizing customer service and dedication to his community. When traveling one day, he thanked the employee of a high-end hotel and the man responded, "my pleasure." Struck by that response, Truett encouraged his employees to add that phrase to their daily interactions, something they do to this day.
Chick-fil-A is still a family business, with Truett's grandson, Andrew, serving as the CEO. The Cathy family has been working together for over 70 years. Today, several second and third-generation Cathy family members carry on the company tradition.
Global Leader in Convenient Foods and Beverages
Pepsi-Cola was invented in 1893 by Caleb Bradham, a pharmacist in New Bern, North Carolina, who sold it at his drugstore soda fountain. Bradham originally called the drink "Brad's Drink", but renamed it Pepsi-Cola in 1898, combining "Pepsi" to advertise its supposed ability to relieve indigestion and "Cola" to refer to its flavor. The original formula included sugar, carbonated water, caramel, lemon and orange oils, kola nuts, nutmeg, and pepsin, an enzyme that aids digestion. Bradham founded the Pepsi-Cola Company in 1902 in the back room of his pharmacy.
Pepsi-Cola went bankrupt in 1923, but was bought by the Loft Candy Co. in 1931. In 1965, Pepsi-Cola merged with Frito-Lay, Inc. to form PepsiCo, a global company that now manufactures, distributes, and markets a wide range of food and beverage brands, including Pepsi-Cola, Lay's, Doritos, Cheetos, Gatorade, Mountain Dew, Quaker, and SodaStream. PepsiCo's mission is to create positive experiences for consumers through its products, which are enjoyed more than one billion times a day in over 200 countries.

It Started with a Pumpkin Patch...
The Nester family began a pumpkin farm in 2010, when the owners, Paige and George, decided to get some beehives to help pollinate their plants. Two hives turned into four, four turned into eight, and the rest is history!
George has a doctorate in Pharmacy and Paige has a teaching certificate in art and biology. Their love for science has turned into a love for beekeeping. They now run the farm full time along with help from family and friends. Their daughter, Blake Nester, has helped them run the farm since she graduated college and with the addition of an event space and Honey Buzz Winery, they're all very busy bees.

The Hometown Stop for all the Brands You Love
Thompson’s opened for business in January of 1908 as Thompson’s Hardware Co. Inc. Mr. T.C. Thompson was the original owner. He was born in Williams County near Georgetown. His parents had come from Copenhagen, Denmark to Louisiana and from there to Lexington, Texas. In 1890 they moved to the Panhandle with their 11 children, 5 boys and 6 girls. One of their prized possessions was a chandelier which had been brought over from Denmark and which hung in their home for many years and was hung as a store fixture in the China and Gift Shop in later years. It is now hung in the home of a great grandson in Dallas.
In January of 2011, Melissa and Jason Wright purchased the business renaming it Thompson’s Gift Shop, LLC. They are very excited and proud to be able to own and run a business that has such a rich history in the town of Canyon. After purchasing they closed the store for several weeks and with the help of the building owners, Danny and Linda Anderson, completely remodeled the inside of the building. The ceiling was painted red to showcase the original tin ceiling. The original hardwood floors were discovered under layers of vinyl and carpet. Danny and Linda spent countless hours refinishing them. A new chandelier was ordered and installed to replicate the prized original one. All the original cabinetry and fixtures were completely restored and painted black. The goal of the remodel was to bring as much of the original aspects back and add a touch of modern elegance to the space. They reopened on March 7, 2011.

Made in the Texas Panhandle, for the Texas Panhandle
On May 9, 1958, a community dream was fulfilled when Perryton Savings and Loan Association was chartered by the Texas Banking Commission under the Building and Loan Association Laws of the State of Texas. The purpose of this charter was to encourage industry, home building and the accumulation of savings.
In 1972, as an indication of success, growth and expansion to more than just a local Savings & Loan, the name was changed to Interstate Savings and Loan Association. By 1974, assets had grown to over $21 million and business expanded to include two branches, one at Spearman, Texas and one at Canadian, Texas.
In 1997, as a benefit and advantage to the shareholders and customers of the bank, the charter was changed to a Texas State Savings Bank Charter and the name changed to Interstate Bank, ssb. A new direction ensued at that time to diversify the bank’s assets to a more traditional commercial bank that would better serve the community’s needs.
2004 saw the bank continue to grow and expand into the Amarillo area with the opening of a loan production office. In October, 2006 the bank opened a full service branch in Amarillo to serve it’s vibrant, growing economy. We are pleased to have a strong staff of experienced, customer oriented bankers and qualified bank directors who share a deep interest in the bank’s customers and in the communities served by the bank
