Maximize Convenience
With a smaller footprint of 1,000–2,500 sq. ft., in-line branches are cost-effective banking locations embedded within retail shopping centers.
Designed for convenience and efficiency, these branches offer a full-service experience in a smaller footprint and are perfect for meeting customers and members where they already are.
Strategic Visibility
Position your brand in high-traffic retail centers, alongside grocery stores, shops, and restaurants.
Lower Overhead, Higher Impact
In-line branches reduce leasing, construction, and operational costs while maintaining full-service capabilities.
Customer and Member Centric Design
Offer essential services, teller transactions, account openings, loan consultations, etc., in a modern, streamlined environment that prioritizes speed and convenience.
Flexible Market Entry
Test new markets or maintain a presence in areas without the commitment of a standalone building.

THE PROCESS
Our team approaches the design and implementation process in five phases.
Phase I: Information gathering/branch analysis.
Element will perform a series of activities to gather information we consider crucial to the development of a design strategy.
Phase II: Onsite photos and measurements.
Your Element project manager will perform a site visit to take photographs and measurements of the current environment.
Phase III: Design development.
Design development activities will integrate concepts with retail strategies to maximize the effective use of space and create a positive selling environment.
Phase IV: Implementation.
Our approach respects existing relationships (many of whom are customers or potential customers) and will incorporate these companies' services into our project.
Phase V: Analysis and ongoing needs.
We are here to support your needs and to grow our relationship through our ongoing support and continued communication.
