January 12, 2010

C.M. Moore Insurance of Bowling Green and Al Torstrick Insurance of Lexington will be the first franchises in Kentucky for Keystone Insurers Group (KIG), the nation’s sixth largest privately-held property/casualty agency.

The two firms become part of KIG’s network of more than 200 independent insurance agencies, serving clients in six states.

“We met the principals of these agencies at a national conference,” said KIG President David Boedker. “They were clearly a cut above, the kind of people with whom we have partnered in the other states. We did our due diligence and determined that Kentucky offered the demographics of a successful state. We’re pleased to extend our reach by partnering with two very fine independent agencies there.”

C.M Moore Insurance is headquartered in Bowling Green, Ky., where it was founded in 1933 by Charles H. Moore. Now under the leadership of brothers Tommy and Charles Adams, who serve as president and corporate vice president, respectively.

Al Torstrick Insurance is headed by its president, Sandra (Torstrick) Blain, whose father, Al Torstrick, created the agency in Lexington in 1967.

Founded in 1983 and headquartered in Northumberland, Pa., KIG is owned by its employees and franchise partners in Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Virginia, Indiana, Ohio and Kentucky. Each partner is an independent agency. With property/casualty premiums exceeding $1 billion, KIG is ranked sixth on Insurance Journal’s 2009 list of Top 100 Privately-Held Property/Casualty Agencies.
