ExecFactor® Initiative Extends East Coast Footprint and Establishes West Coast Presence
DETROIT, Jan. 6, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Leading lower-middle-market private equity firm Huron Capital announced today that its full-service insurance brokerage platform, High Street Insurance Partners ("High Street"), has acquired Day, Deadrick & Marshall, Inc. ("DDM") and Premier Northwest Insurance ("Premier NW").
Both community-focused agencies will help support High Street's strategic goals by expanding its Northeast footprint and establishing a new presence in the Pacific Northwest.
Beltsville, Maryland-based DDM is a full service, independent agency with a focus on personal, business insurance, as well as financial services. Located between Baltimore and Washington D.C., the company has a diverse loyal customer base throughout the region.
"We are proud of our strong customer relationships and growth despite the current environment," said Caroline Day Scruggs, Owner and President of DDM Insurance. "Our partnership with High Street gives us even more confidence in our ability to continue to expand with additional resources and industry expertise."
Oregon City, Oregon-based Premier NW is a full-service independent agency. The company has three Oregon offices that provide insurance services to a diverse customer base across the state, with a primary focus in agriculture.
"We are excited to team up with High Street and their deep agency partner network as we to continue to service our current customers and seek new customers," said Mike Moll, President of Premier NW. "We believe High Street's leadership team has the right mindset to help us capitalize on industry trends while adding to our track record of success."
The shareholders of both DDM and Premier NW will remain active with High Street. Terms of the deals were not disclosed.
"We are thrilled to add both of these companies to our High Street portfolio and expand our reach throughout key geographic and specialty coverage markets," said High Street CEO Scott Wick. "Both of these acquisitions are sure to benefit our entire High Street family, further increasing our scale and management expertise, while cementing our position as a leading insurance agency across the nation."
High Street, an ExecFactor® platform formed in August 2018 to build a full-service insurance brokerage business, has now completed 17 acquisitions since its formation and continues to pursue add-on acquisitions in the insurance agency market.
"High Street's management team continues to find ways to capitalize on its momentum and I could not think of a better way to kick off the New Year than to complete these two add-on acquisitions," said Huron Capital Principal Brian Rassel. "I am optimistic that 2021 will bring even more success to everyone at High Street."
