Texans Credit Union to Commemorate 70 Years of Serving Texans

David Frazier

​Texans Credit Union (Texans), a leading credit union in North Texas, announces its 70 years of business on Saturday, Oct. 21. The anniversary is in conjunction with International Credit Union Day and will be accompanied by a celebration at Texans headquarters located at 777 E. Campbell Road, from 10 a.m. - 2 p.m. 
 
The public event welcomes Texans’ members, families and the wider community. Attendees can enjoy live music, local food trucks, participate in raffles and giveaways, a car show and more to commemorate the credit union’s milestone of 70 years in business and its commitment to the North Texas community since its establishment in 1953. 
 
“Attaining the remarkable achievement of seven decades in business is an extraordinary accomplishment that reflects the dedication of our entire team and the loyalty of our valued members,” said David Frazier, president and CEO of Texans Credit Union. “Our commitment to service, financial excellence and community engagement has been the cornerstone of our success over the years. As we celebrate this milestone, we are not only looking back with pride but also forward with great anticipation. Our vision expands beyond the next seven decades, as we are determined to continue serving our communities, adapting to their evolving needs and making a lasting impact on the lives of our members.” 
 
In 1953, 11 Texas Instruments (TI) employees contributed $5 to establish ‘Texins Credit Union,’ dedicated to fostering thrift and providing affordable loans to fellow TI employees. Following the group’s petition to the Texas Banking Commission, the State of Texas granted Texins charter, officially establishing the credit union, which gained 267 members and $6,855.73 in assets within three months. 
 
Over time, Texins Credit Union transformed into Texans Credit Union, broadening its reach to serve the entire North Texas community, not solely TI employees. Today, Texans stands as a flourishing institution with 250 employees, a loyal membership base of 120,000 individuals and impressive assets totaling $2.1 billion, and looks forward to continued success and growth in the next 70 years.
