About us: Welcome to the Read Insurance Brokers website
Not all insurance brokers are the same:
Read Insurance Brokers Limited treats its’ clients as we would wish to be treated ourselves: as individuals.
We do not win clients on the premise of excellent personal service, only to relegate them to a second tier service thereafter. We make the effort to get to know our clients’ businesses thoroughly and we update each other by regular visits.
We are there when you need us – just a phone call away with direct access to key personnel.
Since we are independently owned, we are not subject to the preferences of a remote management structure.
“We know our clients have a choice at every renewal: we never take clients for granted.”
Why use Read Insurance Brokers?
