Farmers Insurance Group Acquires Bristol West Holdings

Los Angeles-based Farmers Insurance Group has completed its acquisition of non-standard auto insurer, Bristol West Holdings Inc., based in Davie, Fla.

Farmers officials described the acquisition as a “great fit” that will enable the company with its overall business growth. Bristol West has been providing nonstandard, private passenger auto insurance to Florida residents since 1973. Since that time, it has grown to provide liability and physical damage insurance as well, operating in 26 states.
