FirstMerit was a regional bank based in the United States, primarily serving customers in the Midwest. Founded in 1845, it offered a range of financial services, including personal and business banking, loans, and investment options. The bank was known for its community involvement and commitment to customer service. In 2016, FirstMerit was acquired by Huntington Bancshares, a larger financial institution. This merger allowed Huntington to expand its footprint in the Midwest and enhance its service offerings. Following the acquisition, FirstMerit branches were rebranded under the Huntington name, continuing the legacy of serving local communities.
