Company History
Since 1936, Resource One has been delighting members with over 50,000 members worldwide today. Resource One was originally chartered on July 15, 1936, under the name of Sears Dallas Employees Federal Credit Union. Our mission was to fulfill the financial needs of the employees of the Catalog Order Plant of Sears, Roebuck, and Company in Dallas, Texas. Over time, the increased demand for more locations and additional products and services prompted the expansion of our product lines and our field of membership. Through mergers with other company credit unions such as The Dallas Morning News, Safeway, The Southland Corporation, Texas Associates Federal Credit Union, Priority One Credit Union, and most recently, Metroplex. Resource One has built a solid foundation from which to expand its field of membership. Additionally, our membership now spans two of Texas’ largest counties. Membership eligibility is available to persons who live or work in Dallas or Northwest Harris (Houston) counties or within a 10 mile radius of our Carrollton branch.
Our commitment to service, growth and innovative financial products is best expressed through our Vision Statement: Our Members’ One Resource. Like all credit unions, Resource One is a not-for-profit financial cooperative that is owned by the people who save and borrow here. Resource One members share a common bond, such as employment and/or place of residence or work and they combine their savings to create a pool of funds from which qualified members can borrow. Interest earned on loans and investments is returned to members in the form of higher savings rates, lower loan rates, and additional services
