Agribusiness Risk Services rebrands as SureStead Claims

Agribusiness Risk Services has rebranded as SureStead Claims , marking its expansion beyond agribusiness into specialty claims. The rebrand is effective immediately and reflects the company’s evolution from an agribusiness focused claims administrator into a broader claims management platform.

The company also appointed Joshua Belanger as president, a newly created role. Belanger previously served as vice president of claims and will lead strategic growth, operational execution, and expansion into additional specialty markets.

“Josh’s positive impact here has been tremendous, in a relatively short period of time. He quickly assessed the lay of the land, established a feasible roadmap for progress and improvement, and began leading systematic execution to address our key challenges and opportunities. We’ve experienced meaningful progress in organizational effectiveness and team engagement as a result of his hands-on leadership, and this has directly contributed to new carrier and MGA clients. The promotion to President of SureStead is a natural progression, and I look forward to Josh’s continued growth as a leader and as a claims professional.” – William G. “Will” Johnson III, SureStead Claims.

“I’m excited for the opportunity to lead this exceptional team as we strengthen our core claims expertise and broaden our reach into complementary specialty markets. What began as Agribusiness Risk Services has grown well beyond its original boundaries, driven by our people, our partners, and our commitment to innovation in the risk and claims services industry. Our new name, SureStead Claims, captures both who we are and who we intend to be: reliable, forward-thinking, and committed to serving clients in moments that matter the most.” – Joshua Belanger, President, SureStead Claims.

The company said the rebrand includes a new visual identity and digital presence, with no changes to existing policies, broker relationships, or carrier partnerships.
