Marcotte Insurance Agency president David Bushey said: “We are thrilled to be partnering with an established industry leader known for their employee benefits, retirement planning, commercial and personal risk expertise.

“Not only will our clients continue to benefit from the personalized local services they have come to expect from Marcotte, they now have access to USI’s expanded suite of best-in-class solutions, tools and national resources to help protect and grow their business.”

The agency has a workforce of 48 employees working in Omaha and Kearney, Nebraska, who will all be joining USI Insurance Services. David Bushey will continue to lead the Marcotte Insurance Agency team.

Last month, USI Insurance Services acquired Alfred J. Davis Company, an Oregon-based insurance agency, for an undisclosed amount, in a move to expand its commercial and personal risk footprint in the US northwest region.

In October, the insurance brokerage firm acquired Scheetz, Hogan, Freeman & Phillips (SHFP), an insurance agency based in South Carolina. Through the acquisition, USI Insurance Services expects to bolster its commercial, employee benefit and personal risk presence in the US Mid-South region.
