Why Purmort & Martin Insurance Agency?
Purmort & Martin Insurance Agency, one of the area’s oldest and largest locally owned insurance agencies has consistently been recognized by the Sarasota Herald Tribune Readers Poll as the area’s “BEST INSURANCE AGENCY”. Additionally, in 1993, we became the first two-time winner of the “Insignia Award” presented by the Better Business Council of the Sarasota Chamber of Commerce for superior customer service.
Located in our attractive office building at 2301 Ringling Boulevard, we represent an insurance tradition spanning five generations. Our office building is considered by many as one of the most efficiently designed insurance offices in the Southeast, with the emphasis on service to the insured.
Independent agencies have historically been locally owned and operated businesses whose owners are active in the community, available and ready to help. Modern times have seen a reduction in the number of independent agencies and their personal service, and an increase in the “chain store” volume sales approach, as more and more regional firms invade the communities. Purmort & Martin maintains the traditional approach as one of the area’s largest locally owned insurance agencies. We believe you do not have to sacrifice competitive prices to give quality local service.
Our office force of more than 30 full-time, experienced insurance people is divided into the following specialized departments: Commercial Lines, Personal Lines, Life, Marketing and Accounting.
We have six full-time property and casualty agents. In addition to these qualified individuals, most of the customer account managers who handle the insurance accounts daily also have their property and casualty insurance licenses. Thus, they also have full binding authority for most insurance purposes.
Purmort & Martin Insurance Agency is an integral part of the Sarasota community. We are proud to count many of the area’s leading local businesses and individuals among our valued customers.
In 2004, three of our experienced insurance agents joined Rick Martin as owners: Matt Stepulla, Russ Bobbitt and Jamie Purmort. In 2008, they purchased Mr. Martin's shares.
