Brown & Brown

Brown & Brown is an insurance brokerage that began in Daytona Beach, Florida in 1939 as a two-partner agency. It serves customers through two segments: Retail, which pairs local market knowledge with the resources of a global organisation, and Specialty Distribution, which provides underwriting specialisation, market access and distribution for complex and hard-to-place risks.

Retail offices place commercial property and casualty coverage, including property and risk management solutions, natural catastrophe modelling, property valuations and business interruption, builder's risk, inland and ocean marine, flood, political violence and terrorism, environmental liability, executive liability including real estate industry liability, community associations and HOA insurance, workers' compensation, employee benefits and personal lines. Risk management services cover loss control and safety, claims advocacy, risk analytics and surety bonds, and a consulting arm handles actuarial, healthcare claims audit, benefits and M&A consulting.

The company reports 700+ locations across its team of companies, roughly 23,000 teammates, operations in 19 countries and $5.9B in revenue reported in 2025. Acquisitions are a stated part of its growth and are run through a dedicated mergers and acquisitions team.

Coverage is delivered through local offices, so the office that would handle an account, the carriers it can reach and its habitational experience are worth confirming directly. The company's US site is published at us.bbrown.com.
