Marking its eighth branch opening in 2026 alone, the Manhattan, Kan., location grows the company’s presence to its 24th state.

The Manhattan branch is located at 301 Kearney Street, Suite 130, and it’s expected to serve hundreds of customers, retailers and auto dealerships in its first year. Branch Manager Erica Smith will be responsible for the administration of daily operations.
