During the 1960's in Southwest Wyoming, FMC Corporation was mining something called Trona ore. Trona ore is used to make soda ash, which is a component in making products such as glass, laundry detergent and baking soda. FMC Corporation was, and still is, the largest producer of Trona ore in the world. After a significant number of employees were hired by FMC Corporation, the desire for a credit union became apparent. On July 16, 1963 FMC Employees Federal Credit Union was born.

From 1963 to 1988, FMC Corporation was the only select employment group banking with FMC Employees Federal Credit Union. But in 1989 that all changed when FMC Employees Federal Credit Union merged with Stauffer Big Island Federal Credit Union and became know as Trona Valley Federal Credit Union. As Trona Valley FCU we were able to add 79 select employment groups increasing the size of membership significantly.

In 1999, we received our community charter. This not only allowed us to change our name to Trona Valley Community Federal Credit Union but also allowed us to serve any individual who lives, works, worships or attends school in Southwest Wyoming.

Over the years a lot has changed, but even more has stayed the same. When you come into Trona Valley Community FCU you can always count on personable service with a smile. Hence our motto "Hometown Smiles. World-Class Service."
