Already established as one of the nation’s largest independent distributors of life and health insurance products, Integrity Marketing Group has attempted to spread its net even further with a key acquisition.
The firm has made a deal for Neishloss & Fleming, Inc., a national wholesaler of Medicare Supplement and Medicare Advantage products in a move that will see Neishloss & Fleming’s owners become shareholders in Integrity.
Currently the acquired firm has a presence across all 50 states and the District of Columbia having been founded in 1982. As a combined business it will produce more than $725 million in annualized premiums and Integrity’s national presence will expand to more than 120,00 independent agents.
“We felt that it was important to align ourselves strategically with the right partner as the Senior Market continues to evolve, and Integrity positions us very well for the future,” said Tom Fleming, Chairman of Neishloss & Fleming. “Integrity’s partnership approach is a perfect fit for organizations like ours that are looking to go to the next level.”
“My parents, Alice and Eric Neishloss founded the business on the principle of providing the highest possible level of broker support. Tom and I have kept that ‘broker first’ commitment as we have grown the business and we cannot imagine partnering with anyone but Integrity for our next phase of growth,” added Maggie Fleming, President & CEO. “This is an exciting day for our family, our employees and all of our agents.”
