A Soperton Legacy Built on Trust: Dennard Drugs & Georgia First Bank
In Soperton, some relationships are more than business—they’re part of the fabric of the community. One of those enduring relationships is the one between Dennard Drugs and Georgia First Bank.
Founded in 1971, “Dennard’s,” as it’s affectionately known around town, has trusted Georgia First Bank to serve not only its business needs, but its family—generation after generation. For three generations, the Dennard family has banked with Georgia First, building a relationship rooted in trust, consistency, and shared values.
That commitment runs even deeper. Two members of the Dennard family have served on Georgia First Bank’s Board of Directors, helping guide the bank with the same care and integrity they bring to their own business. It’s a powerful example of what community banking truly means: neighbors investing in neighbors, and leadership that grows from local roots.
Today, Dennard Drugs continues to serve Soperton with the same dedication that has defined it from the beginning. As a locally owned pharmacy, they understand their customers by name, not number—and that philosophy aligns perfectly with the way Georgia First Bank approaches banking.
“Dennard Drugs is truly a cornerstone of the Soperton community,” said Michele Johnson, Soperton Market President at Georgia First Bank. “They’ve been caring for local families for decades, and their commitment to this town mirrors our own. Relationships like this are what community banking is all about.”
“We’re proud to stand alongside businesses like Dennard Drugs,” added Georgia First Bank President and CEO Maury Beasley. “Their story reflects everything we believe in—long-term relationships, local leadership, and a commitment to serving our community well.”
As Soperton continues to grow and change, some things remain steady: relationships built on trust, families who invest where they live, and a hometown bank that’s been here for generations—supporting the people and businesses who make our communities stronger.
