Welcome To First South

First South is a member-owned, federally insured financial institution serving over 50,000 members throughout the world. We are a recognized leader in strength and stability, leadership excellence, and overall service quality by a wide-array of independent organizations.


Our History

First South Credit Union was founded in 1957 to meet the financial needs of military personnel and their families stationed aboard the Naval Air Station in Millington, Tennessee approximately 20 miles northeast of Memphis. The credit union began with just one office and deposits of just $200,000. In the 1980's, First South's field-of-membership was broadened to serve employees of different companies throughout the Mid-South. Recently, First South was granted a community charter and is now able to serve all persons living, working, worshiping or attending school in Shelby, Tipton, Fayette, DeSoto, Marshall, Tate and Tunica counties. First South has grown to be among one of the largest credit unions in Tennessee.

Mission and Strategic Vision
Our mission has been a simple one: to provide a full range of financial services to members in a convenient and efficient manner and ensure the financial integrity and soundness of the institution. We strive to provide the best financial products and services available anywhere at prices below what our competitors charge.

Ownership of First South
First South is member owned and member operated. Our volunteer board of directors are democratically elected by our entire membership — one vote per member. In this way, every member has an equal voice in the management of their very own financial institution.

Field-of-Membership
