Cochrane and Company is a family owned and operated, regionally-based, surplus lines wholesaler that provides service predominantly in the 14 Western States. We have offices in Spokane WA, Roseville CA, Albuquerque NM and Kalispell MT, in which we have been providing excellent service for more than 50 years!
Success does not simply happen; together, we make it happen. As our business becomes more sophisticated and technology continues to play a role in our industry, we strive to stay at the forefront, providing faster, more efficient solutions to our retail agency partners. This aside, technology is not the most important key to success; working together is!
In our opinion, our team out performs our tag line, “OUR POLICY IS YOU”. In order that we continue to strengthen the organization with more critical mass, footprint size, market penetration and adding to our underwriting talent base, we have successfully made 5 acquisitions in the last 5 years.
Our focus is helping you with any of the following eight different underwriting teams:
-Commercial Property and Casualty
-Commercial Brokerage/large commercial
-Professional Liability
-Personal Lines
-Garage
Programs: national and regional, including exclusives
-Surety
-Transportation
These teams are in constant collaboration, working to provide you with the best coverage at the most economical price possible for your clients.
Our focus and passion for educating our employees, as well as our agency partners, is shown thru our constant classes sponsored by the IIABW thru our Cochrane College.
Our focus in 2015 continues to be “Do More with Less.” We want to be a business partner, not just a problem solver. This means pairing down our agency partners and focusing our energy on the relationships we have.
Community is one of our core missions. We are involved in two ways.
1. Individual Involvement:
We encourage our employees to volunteer. That can be on the board of the local Insurance association
or the second harvest food bank! We like to be involved and give back.
2. Cochrane Giving:
On each of employee’s monumental anniversaries, we donate to a charity of their choice.
Philanthropic charity giving revolving around education and children
Local Sponsorships: Industry sponsored events
We are doing AMAZING things with AMAZING people every day. We are here for you!
