Chocolate Bayou Credit Union’s rich history dates back to July 13, 1962. We got started when seven employees of the Monsanto Chemical Company (located right on the Chocolate Bayou) decided to pool their savings in order to lend to one another. Over the years, additional service groups gained membership eligibility, including employees of Conoco and Alvin Community College. Today, we serve over 13,000 members who live, work, or worship in Brazoria County.
