Edmonds Branch

Our new flagship branch is now open!

We welcome you to our flagship Edmonds Branch. On September 21, 2020, the South Burnaby Branch at 7375 Kingsway will be relocated across the street to Suite 101 - 7310 Kingsway. The branch will be changing its name to the Edmonds Branch to pay homage to our long history in this area.

We look forward to welcoming you to the Edmonds Branch!

The branch will provide full financial services within a relaxing and welcoming “boutique experience”. You will enter a colourful and inviting environment that has reimagined the traditional bank. Our Money Advisors will be the first to welcome you. If you’re already a member, you’ll recognize all the familiar faces of the staff who served you at the South Burnaby Branch. Whether you are visiting us to conduct a financial transaction or talk with one of our financial experts in our comfortable lounge or private meeting room, we hope you feel welcomed during your visit with us!

We invite our local community to make use of the Edmonds Community Meeting Room. With a large digital display and seating for eight people (limited to four during COVID) it’s an excellent space to connect. The room will be free to use and available for booking by members and local community groups.

Did you know?

G&F has a long history as a community credit union serving families and businesses in the Lower Mainland.

Gulf and Fraser Fishermen’s Credit Union (our full legal name) was founded in Vancouver in 1940 and over the years we have built 16 branches across the Lower Mainland, including four branches in Burnaby. When G&F merged with United Savings Credit Union in 2004, we brought in a legacy of cooperative, community-focused work in Burnaby that can be traced back to the 1930s. In fact, not far down the road from the Edmonds Branch, one of the first credit unions in BC was conceived at a co-op grocery store.^[1]  Read this member story to learn more.

80 years later, credit unions are still strong in BC and continue to evolve along with the finance industry. We take pride in holding true to our co-operative principles as we uphold our concern for community and make it our first priority to provide education, training and information, and financial services that support our members.

We are committed to strengthening our communities.

As a community-based and member-owned credit union, G&F Financial Group is committed to doing business in a way that contributes to the social, economic and environmental well-being of the communities we serve.

One of G&F’s core values is to create positive and meaningful change in our communities. The staff at our Edmonds Branch have demonstrated their commitment to enriching communities through the support they have given to local charities and organizations.
