Brownyard Group (“Brownyard”), a Specialty Program Insurance Manager, today marks its 75th anniversary in the specialty insurance industry with a renewed commitment to innovation and a fresh, new look.
“Seventy-five years in business is a rare achievement,” said Tory Brownyard, President of Brownyard Group. “We are proud to honor our history while looking ahead with a refreshed brand that reflects both our reliability and our ability to adapt to evolving industry needs.”
Brownyard has grown from a single program into a nationally recognized leader known for its deep industry expertise, specialized coverages, and exceptional service. Over the last 75 years, the specialty insurance market has moved from a niche offering to a vital component in the global insurance industry. Throughout this evolution, insurance agents have remained a trusted guiding force, helping clients navigate their policy options. Brownyard has kept pace with this change, leveraging technological advancements to achieve greater operational efficiency and provide more extensive and personalized offerings.
Founded in 1950 by William (Bill) H. Brownyard, the company began with a groundbreaking insurance program for security professionals – the first of its kind in the nation. Today, Brownyard is recognized as the longest-running, family-owned program administrator in the U.S., serving ten (10) niche industries ranging from security services to cemeteries to beauty services (manufacturers & salons) across all 50 states.
The new look reflects the company’s rich history with a nod toward the future with a refreshed logo, updated colors and a new website. The new visual identity and redesigned website, www.brownyard.com, not only provide a more modern look and feel, but create a simpler user experience for brokers and clients to explore programs, access resources, and request quotes.
