New London, WI – First State Bank has named vice president, Kevin Konkol, as manager of the bank’s Agriculture-Business Banking division. As agriculture has changed over the decades, First State Bank has remained committed to serving the unique needs of farmers and other agribusinesses.

“Agriculture continues to play a significant role in our local and regional economy,” commented Konkol. “I am grateful to be able to bring my banking and farming experience together in helping area farmers and agribusinesses with their financial needs.”
Konkol graduated from the Wisconsin Bankers Association Commercial Lending School in 2018 and Leadership Waupaca County in 2020. He is a member of the Waupaca County Forage Council and has volunteered for the Waupaca County Fair. Konkol also continues to help operate the family dairy farm. He and his wife, Jessica, live in Waupaca and have two children.
