Share This:

On March 17, 2021, Roanoke announced a major milestone that positively impacts our customers, our business and our team.

We issued a press release that proudly announced the opening of a new Canadian company headquartered in Toronto, ON. The new organization, Roanoke Insurance Group Canada, Inc., part of Munich Re Specialty Group, N.A., leads our expansion into Canada. RIG CA is a retail and wholesale broker representing several top-rated insurance and surety bond companies.

The new organization is led by one of Roanoke’s own industry veterans, Glenn Patton. He will serve as Managing Director of the Canadian operation.

“I am very excited for this new opportunity to expand Roanoke’s presence and serve the logistics industry in this growing market. I have had the privilege of working in the Canadian insurance marketplace for over 3 years, and I look forward to building strong relationships with our Canadian partners and clients”, states Glenn Patton.

Although Roanoke has been working with Canadian partners for over 25 years, establishing a Canadian entity enables Roanoke to provide a stronger and more seamless service experience to clients with cross border operations. RIG CA is positioned to support the Canadian trade industry with unique and expertly crafted insurance and surety bond solutions designed to meet the needs of freight brokers, freight forwarders, customs brokers and others in the supply chain.

RIG CA is an affiliate of Roanoke Insurance Group Inc. (RIG), a prominent specialty broker to the logistics and trade industry in the United States since 1935.

Roanoke focuses on a  full scope of insurance, surety bond, ATA Carnet products and risk management services for companies involved in transportation, logistics or shipping whether your operations are digital or traditional.
