Inszone Insurance Services, a rapidly growing national provider of commercial, personal, and benefits insurance, is pleased to announce the acquisition of Whitman & Samuelson Insurance Services, Inc. This acquisition expands Inszone’s commercial lines presence in Northern California, welcoming a nearly century-old agency with deep, specialized expertise in commercial manufacturing and distribution.
With roots dating back to 1931 and based in Petaluma, California, Whitman & Samuelson Insurance Services has served Northern California businesses for more than nine decades. Under the leadership of owner Scott Whitman, the agency has built a long-standing focus on commercial manufacturing and distribution, a specialization it has refined over several decades. Whitman & Samuelson operates as a full-service agency with everything handled in-house, and while its book is roughly 80 percent commercial, its personal lines business has grown steadily through word of mouth and long-standing client relationships, often beginning when a commercial client turned to the agency for their home and personal coverage as well.
When Scott Whitman considered the agency’s future, he was drawn to a partner that could support his clients and his team over the long term.
“Inszone had reached out to us several times over the years, and what they described always interested me, even when the timing wasn’t right,” said Scott Whitman, owner of Whitman & Samuelson Insurance Services. “When the moment finally came, I reached out to learn more, and the fit made sense. Having built and acquired agencies myself, I know what a sound transition looks like, and I’m confident this is the right next step for our clients and our team.”
Following the acquisition, Whitman & Samuelson Insurance Services clients will gain access to the expanded markets, technology, and back-office resources of a national platform, while Whitman and his team continue the work of integrating into Inszone’s systems and processes.
“Whitman & Samuelson is a remarkable agency with a history that spans nearly a century,” said Chris Walters, CEO of Inszone Insurance Services. “Scott has built genuine, specialized expertise in commercial manufacturing and distribution, backed by the kind of full-service, in-house approach that clients trust and rely on. That depth of experience is hard to find, and we are honored that Scott chose Inszone to carry his agency’s long legacy forward. We look forward to supporting his clients and his team with the same dedication that has defined this agency for generations.”
