Marine Agency Corporation, founded in 1922 in New York City, initially focused on marine coverages like ocean cargo and shipping insurance. In response to changing economic conditions following the Great Depression, the company diversified its offerings to include business insurance for a variety of sectors, notably personal care industries such as beauty salons and barber shops. Notably, under the leadership of Darryl C. Stevens, who joined in 1975, the agency further expanded to cater to the growing demands of the aesthetics industry, including electrology and skincare businesses.
By the late 1990s, Marine Agency had established itself as a leading provider of insurance specifically tailored for day spas and related services. Their commitment to specialized coverage led them to become the sole national provider of specific insurance policies for nannies and personal care businesses. The agency has continued evolving over the years, achieving significant milestones such as being recognized as a London Coverholder in 2016.
Furthermore, Marine Agency Corp is dedicated to environmental stewardship, achieving Climate Neutral certification in 2021 with a focus on reducing emissions. Their service offerings have also expanded through strategic acquisitions, allowing them to provide comprehensive personal and commercial insurance solutions across all 50 states. The agency’s modern approach ensures that clients in industries such as tattooing, medispas, yoga, and pilates have access to the protection they need.
Emphasizing customer service and specialized knowledge, Marine Agency continues to empower clients, serving as a trusted partner in navigating the complexities of insurance while being committed to sustainability and community support.
