Chase Continues Tennessee Expansion With New Brainerd Location

  • Friday, August 22, 2025

Chase is hosting a ribbon-cutting ceremony to celebrate the opening of its third bank branch in Chattanooga, at 5526 Brainerd Road. It will be held Tuesday at 11 a.m. 

Those attending include Mark Cassara, market director of Chase Banking in Chattanooga; Sonya Platt, branch manager of Chase Brainerd; and Brandon Abney, executive director of J.P. Morgan Commercial Bank in Chattanooga.

This is the third full-service bank branch in Chattanooga. Visitors will discover the branch looks and feels different from a “typical” bank – combining a modern design, layout and state-of-the-art banking technology, reflecting how customers engage with Chase today. Employees will welcome customers in casual meeting spaces, emphasizing a more consultative approach, with personal banking, credit cards, mortgages, auto financing, investment advice, small business loans and payment processing. Self-service transaction areas are also available, including an indoor ATM, outdoor 24-hour ATM and night depository. The branch also features Chase teller services and free Wi-Fi. 

Chase opened its first two Chattanooga branches at Hamilton Place and Northshore in January. JPMorganChase has had commercial banking offices in Chattanooga since 2012.

Chase Brainerd branch hours are Monday – Friday: 9 a.m.-5 p.m., Saturday: 9 a.m.-1 p.m. and closed on Sunday.

A local snow cone truck will be available during the event.
