About Tennessee Underwriters

In 1980, the average cost of a gallon of gas was $1.19 and the average house cost $68,700. The Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan and President Jimmy Carter pulled the U.S. Olympic Team out of the Summer Olympic Games held in Moscow. In Japan, the first camcorders and FAX machines were introduced to the market. Later in the year, Ronald Reagan was elected to be President of the United States. From a business environment standpoint, the United States was suffering double digit inflation and an economic recession.

In that same year, Tennessee Underwriters was founded in Nashville to serve the insurance needs of independent insurance agents and their clients across Tennessee. About a year later, the company moved their office to Franklin just outside of Nashville. Since 1980, Tennessee Underwriters has helped insurance agents navigate the constantly shifting insurance markets to provide them with the products they need as markets change. For insurance carriers, the brokerage has always conducted business with a strong commitment to sound underwriting practices and the pursuit of quality business that yields profitable growth.

While we believe in leveraging and utilizing technology to enhance the operation and enhance the service provide, one constant through the years has been our our commitment to providing personal service. We are and will continue to be a family business that believes in the same principles the business was founded upon in 1980.
