Branch Closure
In response to the changing habits of our customers and the increased reliance on our digital platforms, we would like to inform you that we are reviewing distribution of our branch network. Currently, 82 percent of our customers transact through alternate channels which include cards and Mfukoni mobile and online banking.
Presently, more people are embracing technology and the use of hand-held devices amidst the pandemic for day-to-day banking activities. As a result, the rise in demand for convenient financial services was inevitable, hence at SBM Bank Kenya we are leveraging on the growing mobile usage in the country to offer digital products that will make banking for our customers more efficient and convenient.
In light of proximity to co-located branches, we will be merging operations of three of our branches and two Express service centers effective 29th October 2021. Account holders in these branches will continue to enjoy uninterrupted services through our branch network and their new domicile branches as indicated below:
- Lavington Branch will be merged with ABC Elite Branch located at ABC Place, 1st Floor, Waiyaki Way.
- Buru Buru Branch will be merged with Donholm Branch located at East Gate Shopping Mall, outering Road on the Ground Floor.

The impacted branches will cease operations by close of business 29th October 2021. Normal banking services at the receiving branch will resume effective Monday 1st November 2021.
