The Texas-based agency partnership Combined Agents of America LLC (CAA) announced it is expanding into Nebraska and elected Rick Elliott to serve as central regional vice president.
The insurance agency aggregator will be actively seeking out growth-focused independent agencies in Nebraska that fit the CAA personality that places a high commodity on integrity, well-operated business models, profitability and synergy with its current Central members.
With a total 52 independent agencies in CAA, new Nebraska members will team up with the nine CAA member agencies in Oklahoma and Kansas to form the Central region.
Elliott is the owner and president of Elliott Insurance Group (EIG).

EIG is based in Kansas and a full service, independent insurance agency servicing Kansas and Missouri. EIG joined CAA in 2009.
