We make it personal at Southwest Louisiana Credit Union.

Southwest Louisiana Credit Union is a member-owned financial cooperative institution, and we’re here to serve our members. By just opening and maintaining a share savings account, you become a part-owner of the credit union.

Credit unions are not-for-profit, which means your loan interest rates are lower, your earnings are higher and you’ll rarely see fees.

Your financial success is our priority, and we’ve been helping our members achieve their goals for over 60 years. When you talk with one of our certified financial counselors, you won’t be talking with another guy in a suit who’s only looking for big profits. You’ll be talking with someone in your Credit Union Family who has been where you are and who can help you get on your feet.

In a region swept up by unparalleled industrial expansion, the Port of Lake Charles serves as an economic engine to Southwest Louisiana. The Calcasieu Ship Channel is vital to area industry and is rapidly becoming one of America’s energy corridors.

Roughly 200 square miles of the Port District house facilities that produce 7.5 percent of the nation’s daily petroleum products consumption. With the deepwater navigation channel, cargo handling capabilities, three class 1 railroad companies and a short line railroad, Interstate highway systems and access to barge traffic connections, the Port was ranked by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers as the 11th-busiest port district in the U.S., based on cargo tonnage.

The Port of Lake Charles is governed by a seven-member board of commissioners and comprises two marine terminals and over 5,000 acres of property zoned for industrial use, including an industrial park. For more information, call 337-439-3661 or visit www.portlc.com.
