Hancock Whitney Bank - STNL 329 W Pont Des Mouton Rd

In the late 1800s, the Gulf Coast and two new banks were booming. South Mississippians looked to Hancock Bank to help manage prosperity created by agriculture, seafood, timber and tourism. Sixty miles to the west, New Orleans and Whitney Bank thrived in the wake of the World Cotton Expo. For more than 100 years, Hancock and Whitney grew with and because of the people and places of the Gulf South. As the banks expanded into new towns and cities, they quickly became trusted, reliable business and community partners. Many smaller regional banks became part of Hancock and Whitney over the years. Hancock and Whitney came together in 2011; but that merger simply brought historical and community connections between the two banks full-circle—the consummation of a relationship which started 100 years earlier. The two banks were neighbors, sharing similar history, geography and values. Early Hancock and Whitney leaders were business and social contemporaries.
