OMAHA, Neb. — SAC Federal Credit Union said this week it is making gains with a campaign to open in-store grocery branches and by year-end expects to have four facilities in operation, a jump from the one unit a year ago.
"We were pleased that the Super Saver chain actually took out video stores to make room for us and another chain even asked us to come in to replace a bank," said Jackie Boryca, vice president-marketing.
The latest full service facility at a Super Saver in Millard will have its grand opening ceremonies Nov. 5 followed by two more store openings Nov. 15 at a Super Saver in Council Bluffs, Ia. and at a Hy-Vee store Nov. 19 which once housed a Bank of the West branch.

Boryca said its vendor, Georgia-based Financial Supermarkets Inc. helped broker the deal with both chains.
The new Millard facility will offer extended evening and weekend hours, including Sundays and will provide a complete range of financial services. SAC opened its first grocery branch in a Hy-Vee store in Papillion
"We've had very good response from our first branch, particularly from working mom's who like the extended hours, seven day a week operation," said Borcyaa citing the demographics of having two-parent working families.
