Premier NW Insurance Honored at National Sales Conference

DES MOINES, IA – Ryan Justus and Rex Rider of Premier NW Insurance, with offices in Salem, Clackamas and Sandy, were recognized at the Nationwide® Agribusiness Insurance Company national sales conference held in Las Vegas, NV as among the company’s leading writers of farm insurance. The agency is an On Your Side® Farm Certified Agency, a designation which recognizes their skill and dedication to the farming industry.

The annual FAST Track Conference was held in recognition of top-producing agents in sales of new farm insurance policies during 2012.

“Farm coverage is a highly specialized line of insurance,” said Jerry Hillard, Farm Sales Associate Vice President, Nationwide Agribusiness Insurance Company, Des Moines. “Only agents who specialize in this highly complex type of business can provide our farm customers with important advice and counsel. Our FAST Track Conference recognizes agents who have made this commitment.”

While more than 9,300 agencies write farm insurance for Nationwide Agribusiness, only 94 qualified for the 2013 FAST Track Conference.

“Congratulations to Premier NW Insurance on reaching this level of recognition,” said Hillard, “and for their ongoing dedication to protecting Oregon farmers.”
