Insurance Associates Celebrates 60 Years in the Business!
INSURANCE ASSOCIATES CELEBRATES 60 YEARS IN THE BUSINESS!
Insurance Associates is proud to celebrate their 60th Anniversary in June of this year. As the agency reflects on this significant milestone we look at the legacy of our founder, Ted Barker. Ted bought a small insurance agency in Washington, DC in 1956. He aptly named it Insurance Associates, as he wanted all employees to feel valuable to the organization. Ted’s vision was to build the agency based on loyalty to employees, clients, and insurance carriers. Over time the agency grew and IA expanded the client base to include contractors of all types, real estate firms, government contractors and non-profits. Ted’s vision that was instilled within the agency in 1956 is still with us today as we now number 58 outstanding “Associates” in our four offices serving the entire Washington-Baltimore region.
“Our success is a result of many factors: our loyal client base, the many associates who deliver exceptional service and our outstanding group of insurance company partners and business colleagues who have supported us over the years. I firmly believe that Ted would be pleased of what we have achieved as we still operate the agency with the values of unparalleled service, integrity, and professionalism that he valued when he started the agency,” said Stephen A. Spencer, President of IA.
Insurance Associates realizes that they cannot lose sight of the responsibility to the community that has supported the business over the years, so to recognize this important milestone IA is donating $5,000 to six different charities that have a special meaning to the agency for a total donation of $30,000.
