Westland Insurance Group has closed four acquisitions – acquisitions which support the company’s expansion strategy to serve more communities across Canada, particularly in western Canada.
The four acquired brokerages are King Insurance in Winnipeg, MB; Johnson Agencies in Leduc, AB; Hedderick Insurance Agencies in Pincher Creek, AB; and Nauroth & Associates in Prince George, BC.
Details on the four acquired brokerages are as follows:
All together, the acquisitions add four branches and over 30 employees across three provinces to Westland Insurance. The company will have nearly 1,500 employees and over 120 offices in BC, Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba.
“This is an exciting time for Westland as we continue our strategic expansion across Canada. These acquisitions strengthen our presence in western Canada, and, for the first time, provide us the opportunity to support clients in Manitoba,” commented Westland Insurance CEO Jason Wubs. “These are all client-focussed agencies with deep roots in their communities, and they are perfectly aligned to Westland’s core values.”
Wubs added that even after the acquisitions, the acquired firms’ professional advisors will “continue to provide the same great service” to their existing clients. The CEO also said that Westland Insurance is excited to welcome its newest team members to the family.
