Where Relationships Matter, Mergers Also Matter in Alabama

Less than eight months after two of Alabama’s oldest insurance agencies merged to create the Where Relationships Matter Group, the group has taken on another agency with offices in the southeast part of the state.

WRM Group announced that it has inked a merger agreement with Flowers Insurance Agency, which has offices in Dothan, Eufala and Phenix City. Flowers’ Managing Partner Shane Sinquefield joins Haig Wright II and Lin Moore as managers of the expanded WRM Group.

Flowers will operate under its own name and employees will continue at their respective offices, the companies said in a news release. Flowers provides commercial insurance, surety and bonding, employee benefits solutions, personal and life insurance.

WRM was formed last summer when Byars/Wright Insurance and Pritchett-Moore Insurance merged. Both firms were more than 75 years old and have offices around the state.
