Dort Financial Credit Union Breaks Ground For Commerce Township Branch

Location Will Be Credit Union’s 13th Michigan Location, Third in Oakland County

Dort Financial Credit Union recently started construction for a new location in Commerce Township. The building, located at 3227 N Pontiac Trail, will be the credit union’s 13th branch location in Michigan. The credit union anticipates opening the new branch in late in 2026.
Dort Financial Credit Union also has four locations in the Palm Beach, Florida, area operating as Flagler Credit Union, a Division of Dort Financial.

Dort Financial’s Commerce Township branch will feature a knowledgeable staff, video tellers, drive-thru tellers and ATMs. The site is conveniently located off M5 and in the 5 & Main Development, an area with considerable existing commerce and new growth.

“This growth allows us to live up to our mission by making our diverse suite of financial services as accessible as possible to residents and businesses in Oakland County,” said Dort Financial Credit Union President & CEO Brian Waldron. “We believe in people helping people. We also look forward to supporting the community in an impactful way.”

Waldron noted that the credit union is excited about making an even greater impact in Oakland County with its community involvement, including employee volunteers.

“Dort Financial has already started making an impact and a difference in Oakland County with our Orion Township Branch on Brown Road and our Clarkston location,” Waldron added. “This just gives us an even bigger opportunity to support the causes in that area that are important to the people who live there.”

Originally founded in Flint, Michigan, Dort Financial Credit Union has grown to expand its locations through Genesee, Lapeer, Livingston, Shiawassee, and now Oakland Counties.

“As we look at our demographics, who we can serve best, and our products and services, it made sense to expand south from our current footprint,” Waldron added. “Commerce Township is a great area for us as we continue our growth strategy.”
