Brown & Brown of Florida Buys Beecher Carlson’s T.R. Jones Units
Brown & Brown of Florida has acquired insurance broker Beecher Carlson subsidiaries, Thomas R. Jones, Inc. and T.R. Jones & Co. of Broward, L.C., collectively doing business as T.R. Jones & Co.
T.R. Jones & Co. sells commercial and personal lines property as well as casualty and employee benefits products in Florida and reports total annual revenues of approximately $6.7 million.
Thomas R. “Tom” Jones, Alan Lund, and their staff will join Brown & Brown and continue to serve their clients from their Homestead, Key Largo, and Ocean Reef offices.
The agency’s Winter Park operations, doing business as Kraft Insurance Agency, will combine with Brown & Brown of Florida’s existing Maitland, Florida office, under the leadership of John Berner.
Bret D. Quigley, executive vice president and chief financial officer of Atlanta-based Beecher Carlson, said there was “no longer significant alignment between T.R. Jones and Kraft and the going forward strategic vision of Beecher Carlson.”
