North Risk Partners marks a century
18 May 2017
North Risk Partners — C.O. Brown Division Insurance Agency in Red Wing is celebrating 100 years in business along with a refresh on its branding.
Formerly doing business as C.O. Brown, a division of North Risk Partners, the agency has changed its name to lead with the North Risk Partners name, a move meant to unify its four divisions and 16 locations across Minnesota.
Prior to joining C.O. Brown, the agency was known by the Red Wing community as Lawrence-Bohmbach Agency.
C.O. Brown Division, specifically, is celebrating its 100th anniversary in 2017. The division was founded in Rochester, Minn.
Red Wing Area Chamber of Commerce held a ribbon-cutting at the local office, 620 Main St., to mark the anniversary.
