Chase Bank announced in February it planned to open 500 new branches nationwide and hire 3,500 employees over the next three years, including deeper into Tennessee.
Following the expansion in the Nashville and Memphis markets and one branch near Knoxville, Chase will open five to six more branches in East Tennessee by the end of 2026. The 11242 Kingston Pike branch in Farragut opened in April and another branch at 503 Foothills Plaza in Maryville opened in May.
Now one is opening in November at 7923 Kingston Pike near Trader Joe’s and another by the end of the year at 235 S. Illinois Ave. in Oak Ridge. The branches will have full banking services and function as advice and loan centers for investors, small businesses and homeowners.
“We’ve felt so welcome by the Knoxville community. Our new branches in the area have been very successful, showing us the need for more Chase locations to meet the strong demand,” said A.D. Lavalle, Chase’s market director of banking for Knoxville.
The East Tennessee branches will have self-service centers with interior and drive-up ATMs, but no safe deposit boxes.
The hours will be 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday and 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday.
Employees will be paid at least $20 an hour with health and retirement benefits.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Big hearts, small hands! Tennessee kids are stepping up to make a big difference this summer.
First Lady Maria Lee on Tuesday announced the eighth annual Tennessee Kids Serve Summer Challenge, encouraging young students to dedicate part of their summer to helping others.
The program, part of the Tennessee Serves initiative, runs from June 1 through Aug. 1 and is open to rising kindergarteners through rising sixth graders across the state.
Participants must complete at least two hours of service across two of eight designated categories to finish the challenge, with top participants earning an invitation to a September carnival at the Tennessee Residence.
Since its launch in 2019, more than 3,500 children have contributed over 15,000 hours of service through activities ranging from park cleanups to assisting nursing homes and raising funds for disaster relief.
Registration opened Tuesday, with parents and guardians able to sign up participants and access additional details through the First Lady’s official website.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WZTV) — A bill moving through the Tennessee Legislature could reshape how pharmacies do business in the state, with CVS warning it could lead to widespread store closures.
The Tennessee Senate has passed legislation that would change the way pharmacies can operate. The proposal has been dubbed “the CVS bill” because it directly impacts the drugstore chain.
Under the bill, drugstores would no longer be allowed to negotiate prices directly with insurance providers or government programs. Instead, a third party would be required to step in.
The bill is now under debate in the House. CVS says the change would force more than 100 of its pharmacies to close across Tennessee, but lawmakers disagree.
