Independent insurance intermediary, Cullum
Capital Ventures (CCV), today announces the successful acquisition
of AC Insurance Services marking its first of the New Year and its
49th since it started trading in June 2006.
AC Insurance Services is a successful
commercial broker based in Harold Wood, Romford, run by owners Ann
Charlwood and David Head. The business and key staff will be
combined with Gardners Insurance Services based in Chelmsford,
which joined CCV in 2006. Since then Paul Goldsmith, managing
director of Gardners, has grown that business to an operating unit
controlling £10 million of premium with a strong reputation in the
region.
CCV’s chief executive Michael Rea says: “I’m
delighted to announce an acquisition so early in the New Year, and
welcome AC Insurance Services to our Group. Paul has built an
extremely successful business since becoming part of CCV and I am
confident that the addition of AC Insurance Services will make a
significant contribution to the continued growth of our presence in
the local area.”
