He cited the bank’s plan is to respond to our clients’ pain points and opportunities in their lives and business by ensuring that banking is a convenient way of life.

Some of the solutions such as Cash Deposits Machines will enable businesses and individuals to deposit cash 24 hours, realizing value immediately. Other solutions such as Vehicle Asset Financing (VAF) will assist grape and sunflower farmers in the region with access to agriculture equipment in order to boost their production and add value to the wine and edible oil industry in Tanzania.

Dodoma is the main grape-producing region in Tanzania. The expansion is part of the bank’s plan to ensure Tanzanians have access to Stanbic’s financial solutions to increase their productivity and lead to a sustainable livelihood.

“We aim to make a meaningful and long-term impact on the capital city, by providing tailored and innovative financial solutions that will contribute to the region’s socio-economic development,’ Said Ndadzungira.

The opening of the Dodoma branch brings the total number of the bank’s representation to six regions – Dar es Salaam, Mwanza, Mbeya, Arusha and Moshi, and Dodoma.
