Rural Ontario Family

Our History

Van Allen Insurance was first founded in 1989 by Ken & Barbie Van Allen as an agency for Elma Mutual.

They operated on the principle that their neighbours were their clients and lasting relationships are a foundation of their community. In 2001 the agency became a brokerage which allowed for the growth with more insurance options.

In 2011 the brokerage was purchased by Ken & Barbie’s son, Shane, and his wife Sarah.
