Seacoast Commerce Bank hired Mindy Tran as senior vice president and Small Business Administration (SBA) business development officer, who will be located in the bank’s Portland loan production office.

Tran has over 16 years of SBA experience working with small businesses to facilitate the acquisition, development and refinance of their commercial real estate properties. Tran has focused on helping small businesses located in Southern California. Tran was most recently with Wells Fargo Bank in a similar position.

“Mindy is a great addition to our SBA team and will enhance our presence and success in the greater Portland market. Mindy will continue to source her Southern California contacts as she grows her contacts in Portland. She has advocated for small businesses throughout her career and has been an outstanding producer of SBA loans, specifically for small business owners who want to buy, construct, refinance or expand their own facility,” stated David H. Bartram, EVP, chief operating officer and SBA division manager.
