About ZIP Code 37997

SunTrust Bank formerly operated under dedicated ZIP code 37997 in Knox County, Tennessee. The bank's Tennessee presence traces to its 1986 acquisition of Third National Corporation, then the second largest bank holding company in the state. SunTrust Bank, East Tennessee was headquartered in Knoxville until it merged into the main SunTrust organization in 2000. This ZIP code has existed for over two decades, though its function has evolved with banking industry consolidation.

In December 2019, SunTrust merged with BB&T to form Truist Financial Corporation, one of the largest bank mergers since the 2008 financial crisis. The combined institution now operates as Truist Bank. With only a single delivery code on file and no named buildings in postal records, this appears to have been a focused mail processing designation rather than a branch banking operation. Knoxville remains the valid mailing city. Census demographic data is not available for this commercial designation.
