This strategic partnership unites two successful agencies, each more than 75 years old. The complementary nature of their portfolios and cultures presents a substantial opportunity. Synergies come from the increased scale of the group, sharing of best practices, and combined resources.
"These are exciting times," said Haig Wright II, President of Byars|Wright. "In our industry, scale matters. This allegiance enhances our overall market strength and provides significant opportunities for all involved. More importantly, it benefits our customers."
Wright and Pritchett-Moore Insurance President Lin Moore agree the merger was a natural progression for the two like-minded agencies.
"We're pleased to partner with an agency that cares about its employees, customers, community, and carrier relationships as much as we do," Moore stated. "We're better together. This is a positive move which will accelerate revenue growth and profitability, allowing us to expand and provide more value and superior services."
Byars|Wright has six offices across Alabama. Pritchett-Moore's office is in Tuscaloosa. There are no plans to change locations. Current employees remain in their existing offices. The agencies will continue offering commercial insurance, surety/bonding, employee benefits solutions, personal and life insurance.
In addition to Wright and Moore serving as Managing Members of WRM Group, Gabe Clement of Byars|Wright and Andrew Hudson of Pritchett-Moore comprise WRM Group's Executive Committee. Clement and Hudson remain in their current agency roles as well.
