Melissa Marquez, our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) for the last 20 years is retiring from her role at the credit union as of June 12, 2025. Melissa’s leadership has been instrumental to the success of Genesee Co-op, and we could not have thrived without her. When she began here, our credit union had 2,400 members and $7 million in assets. The credit union was also in serious financial shape. As Melissa retires, our credit union has 4,500 members and $45 million in assets. We are financially strong, own our own building, and just launched our new logo and website.
The Board of Directors of Genesee Co-op FCU is truly excited to announce that Dan Apfel, our Chief Operations Officer, has been chosen as the next CEO of our credit union. Over the last seven years, Dan has been working collaboratively with Melissa to ensure that our members have a positive experience every time they call, visit, write or email the staff of the credit union. Dan’s creativity, dedication and leadership are all qualities that will ensure that our credit union remains financially strong, continually welcoming and focused on the financial well-being of all our members. Let us all welcome Dan in his new role here at Genesee Co-op as the fourth CEO over the last 43 years!
