Bright future leads to new Brightway Insurance headquarters

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (April 15, 2010) – April brings positive changes to Brightway Insurance as it moves its Jacksonville headquarters to a new, state-of-the-art facility.

With more than 13,000 square feet, Brightway Insurance’s new headquarters at 3733 University Blvd. W. in Century Plaza will accommodate approximately 120 associates as the company continues to grow by hiring locally to handle increasing demands in the area of policy servicing, accounting, quality assurance, sales and administration.

This makes Brightway Insurance the anchor tenant for Century Plaza.

The company’s previous square footage was 5,600 at its old site, 5700 St. Augustine Road. The company will occupy more than double that at its new site and will have the option to grow into an additional 20,000 square feet. The leasing company is Florida Executive Realty, and the agent was David Needle.

With many insurance brands in the headlines for leaving Florida, Jacksonville-based and Florida-focused Brightway Insurance continues to bring jobs and savings to the community as demand continues to grow. Every Brightway Insurance agency is a fullfunctioning “insurance superstore,” according to CEO David Miller, featuring more than 100 of the top insurance brands, all under one roof. With more than 60,000 customers, Brightway sales have continued to double annually for the last six years.

“The important numbers to me are the millions of dollars in savings that customers are now able to spend on things other than insurance,” Miller said. “To us, this is our version of a private sector stimulus plan. Can you imagine how our state will benefit as more and more people are able to save, invest or spend the $500 to $5,000 annual savings that Brightway Insurance provides them?"

In addition, Brightway’s new headquarters features fiber optic communication, which allows for increased computer speed and efficiency.

The new headquarters even has a new dedicated massage center, continuing the company’s in-house massage therapy for its associates.

Brightway Insurance has 60 Florida offices with more than 100 Jacksonville associates and 300 total Florida associates. In November 2009, Insurance Journal named Brightway the 27th largest personal lines insurance agency in the country. Florida Trend also ranked Brightway seventh on its list of top 100 “Florida’s Best Companies to Work For.” The Jacksonville Business Journal has named Brightway among its “Best Places to Work in Northeast Florida” for the past four years.
