NFP acquires Arizona insurance firm McCullough

Insurance broker NFP has acquired Arizona-based property/casualty (P&C) firm McCullough Insurance Agency to further expand its presence in the Southwest market.

The transaction closed on April 1.

Based in Flagstaff, Arizona, McCullough offers expertise in various lines of coverage to clients throughout the Southwest region.

Following the deal, the former owners Mark and Tim McCullough have joined NFP P&C as directors, and co-owner Randy Evans became a treasurer in NFP P&C’s Southwest region.

They now report to Ed Kurowski, regional president of NFP’s Mountain States region, while Evans reports to Dennis Via, regional chief financial officer of NFP P&C.

"We’re thrilled to welcome the McCullough Agency to the NFP family," Terry Scali, CEO of NFP P&C, commented. "With more than 90 years of experience serving generations of families in Flagstaff and the broader Southwest region, McCullough embodies values that are consistent with NFP’s business philosophy: integrity, respect, personalized service and professionalism."

Mark McCullough said: "We’re excited to join NFP’s national P&C platform and expand its offering in the Southwest market. We are also eager to leverage NFP’s vast expertise in the benefits area to provide more robust offerings to our customers."
