Heartland Bank

The Heartland Story
Heartland Bank has a proud history of cultivating community relationships as its roots date back to the Croton Bank, founded in a small Licking County farming community – Croton, Ohio. Local farmers, cultivating crops for a living, kept their banking local, thus building neighborhood financial relationships and strengthening this first branch.

Tiney M. McComb formed Heartland BancCorp in 1988 and shortly thereafter, purchased shares of Croton Bank and changed the name to Heartland Bank. Tiney faithfully served as President for nearly 20 years and handed over the reins as Chief Executive Officer to his son, Gregory Scott McComb, who had already become President in 2008. In 2011, Scott became Chairman of the Board.

Heartland Bank operates 20 full-service banking offices and provides full-service commercial, small business and consumer banking services; professional financial planning services; and other financial products and services.

In April of 2020, Heartland Bank completed the acquisition of Victory Community Bank. This merger expanded the presence of Heartland Bank into the Northern Kentucky and Greater Cincinnati market areas complementing Heartland's exciting Central Ohio footprint. With Kentucky branches located in Ft. Mitchell, Ft. Thomas and Union, Heartland opened its first Cincinnati location in the Kenwood area in December of 2022.

The Hilliard Heartland Bank branch, located at 3971 Main Street, sits conveniently along the walkable area of downtown Hilliard. Inviting and accessible, this branch offers financial experts six days a week. Stop by and check out “Where banking feels good!”
