Our Story
On April 1, 2026, The Victory Bank merged into QNB Bank, bringing together two respected Pennsylvania community banking institutions with a shared commitment to service, integrity, and local decision-making. Victory Bank will operate as a Division of QNB Bank from April 1 to June 21, 2026, at which time its system will convert, and it will operate as QNB Bank on June 22, 2026.
The Victory Bank History:
The Victory Bank was built from scratch by a team of experienced and passionate bankers and supported by several hundred local shareholders. From the beginning, the vision was clear: to populate the bank with “better bankers” — individuals of high moral character who care deeply about delivering high-quality work for their clients and communities. Victory focused not on becoming the biggest bank, but on providing an unmatched client experience, grounded in strong local relationships and meaningful community involvement. When Victory considered acquisition partners, they looked for financial strength for their shareholders, a similar philosophy of exceptional support and service to the community and customers.
QNB Bank
QNB Bank brings a proud 149-year legacy of community banking and a longstanding commitment to enhancing economic vitality and social welfare in the regions it serves. Through sponsorships, charitable contributions, and active community engagement, QNB has remained dedicated to strengthening the communities where its customers live and work.
As QNB President & CEO Dave Freeman shared, the merger “marks an important step forward in further building out a leading Pennsylvania franchise that enhances our ability to serve communities, enrich the local banking experience, and deliver outstanding services to our customers.” Victory President & CEO Joe Major echoed this sentiment, noting, “We are delighted to join forces with QNB… this partnership represents an exciting opportunity to build one of the most dynamic and growth-oriented community bank franchises in Pennsylvania.”
Together, the legacy of The Victory Bank continues through QNB — rooted in community, driven by excellence, and focused on delivering lasting value for customers, employees, and the communities we proudly serve.
