About Us
As Lamar Bank & Trust enters its 100th year of service in 2025, we remain steadfast in our commitment to innovation, customer service, and community involvement.
A Century of Community Commitment
Since our founding in 1925, LBT has grown from a small local bank to a trusted financial institution serving Barton County and expanding into Dade County in late 2025. Over that time, LBT has remained deeply committed to the communities it serves. Whether funding academic and athletic programs or supporting the Lamar Free Fair, we consistently invest in the success of our neighbors. Our employees also dedicate their time and expertise to various organizations, committees, and boards, ensuring that LBT continues to play an active role in fostering community growth.
For the past century, we've remained dedicated to delivering personalized financial services and support to individuals and businesses across the region. By continually evolving to meet our customers' changing needs, we prioritize innovation, technology, and a customer-focused experience.
Continuing a Legacy of Excellence into the Future
LBT has proudly served Lamar and surrounding communities for 100 years and is excited to continue its tradition of excellence.
As we look to the future, the bank remains dedicated to fostering economic growth, offering innovative financial solutions, and strengthening the ties that have made us a community cornerstone for 100 years.
