The Dowd Agencies, the oldest insurance agency in New England under continuous family ownership, today announced it has acquired St. Germain Insurance in Ware, adding another established independent agency to its growing network throughout New England.
Established in 1966, St. Germain Insurance has earned the trust of generations of individuals, families and businesses through personalized service and a commitment to understanding each customer’s insurance needs.
As part of The Dowd Agencies, St. Germain Insurance customers have access to broader carrier options and expanded resources while continuing to work with the same trusted team and receive the relationship-driven service they value.
“St. Germain Insurance has built a strong reputation over six decades by putting its customers first and providing thoughtful, personalized insurance advice,” said John E. Dowd Jr., president and CEO of The Dowd Agencies. “That approach aligns closely with our own philosophy at Dowd. We are pleased to welcome the St. Germain team and support the relationships they have built in the community.”
The acquisition brings together two family-owned agencies with deep roots in Massachusetts. The Dowd Agencies has served customers since 1898 and has continued to expand its presence throughout New England while maintaining its commitment to personal service and local communities. St. Germain Insurance is located at 246 West Street in Ware and provides personal and commercial insurance coverage to customers throughout the region.
