JetStream Federal Credit Union awards LEVEL5 retail branch project
LEVEL5 creates innovative highly branded space
ATLANTA, GA (June 17, 2015) — JetStream Federal Credit Union, headquartered in Miami Lakes, Florida, has awarded the design, construction and branding of its new Miami Lakes retail branch to Atlanta based LEVEL5. The new 2,735 square foot branch will be conveniently located in the Royal Oaks Plaza Shopping Center at 15420 NW 77th Court in Miami Lakes. The branch will have a retail look and feel with a highly branded member friendly environment. The new branch will replace JetStream’s existing branch located at 6600 Cow Pen Road.
The branch’s open and inviting design will permit JetStream’s staff to provide high touch personalized banking services to its members. Jeanne Kucey, President and CEO of JetStream said, “LEVEL5 has designed our new branch so our staff will be able to service our member’s needs in a bright contemporary space aided by the latest automated cash handling technology. Our members deserve a wonderful banking experience and we can’t wait to provide that experience to them in our new Miami Lakes Branch.”
Ms. Kucey said, “We chose LEVEL5 to design, build and brand our new branch because of the company’s depth and breadth of knowledge and experience in retail banking. LEVEL5 understands how to integrate new technology and methods of delivering banking services into branches that allows us to cost effectively deliver a higher quality of personal service to our members.”
Initial work on the project has already begun. Construction should be complete in September with the branch opening shortly thereafter.
“It is the trust and confidence that community-based financial institutions continue to place in LEVEL5 that allows us to expand our resources and our geographic footprint. In our 12-year history we have grown LEVEL5 into a national company that exclusively works with community-based financial institutions like JetStream Federal Credit Union. We are very thankful that the JetStream team selected LEVEL5 to design, build and brand the credit union’s new retail branch,” said LEVEL5’s Mike Colvin, Executive Vice President and Principal.
