Inszone acquires Northern Insurance Group

Inszone Insurance announced the acquisition of Northern Insurance Group , an Illinois-based agency.

Northern Insurance traces its origins back to 1927, when it was founded as Cornolo Insurance Agency by Joe Cornolo. After decades of community-focused service, Armand D’Andrea joined the agency in 2003. The firm was rebranded as Northern Insurance Group, Ltd. in 2005. Today, Northern Insurance is known for its expertise in construction, restaurant, and small business coverage, while maintaining a broad generalist portfolio.

The Northern Insurance team will continue to operate in place, serving clients as they always have—now supported by Inszone’s expanded resources, enhanced technology, and nationwide carrier network.

“When we began exploring a partnership, we knew we needed a company with greater resources, stronger carrier access, and a broader platform to support continued growth. After meeting with the Inszone team, it became clear that their vision aligned with ours. I saw a similar philosophy and a level of scale and support that matched where we wanted to go next. They understand how to grow without losing the personal touch that our clients expect.” – Armand D’Andrea, President of Northern Insurance Group.

Armand and the Northern Insurance team represent the best of what independent insurance agencies bring to their communities. Northern Insurance Group brings years of expertise to insurance, particularly in construction and restaurant risks, and we are excited to welcome them to Inszone.” – Chris Walters, CEO of Inszone.
