Illinois insurance agency joins VIAA

An Illinois insurance agency has become the newest member of Valley Insurance Agency Alliance, a network of more than 120 independent insurance agencies in Missouri and Illinois. Pin Oak Agency, located in Maryville, Ill., has joined the alliance. Pin Oak Agency was founded by Andrew Calloway, who has more than 15 years of finance industry experience. The agency specializes in personal and commercial insurance, including home, auto and life coverage. “I joined the alliance because it gives my agency a bigger target market that I can assist with a wider range of services,” Calloway said. “I look forward to serving customers in my community and more, thanks to the broad range of product lines that Valley Insurance Agency Alliance offers to its members.” Founded in 2006, VIAA generates more than $200 million in annual written premium. It is a regional founding member of the Strategic Insurance Agency Alliance (SIAA).
