SouthGroup Insurance Services named to Top 100 Agencies

Special to The Clinton Courier

SouthGroup Insurance Services, with offices in Clinton, has been named one of the Top 100 Privately-Held Insurance Agencies for 2022 by Insurance Journal. The listing is ranked by total 2021 property and casualty premiums written. The report is a glimpse at some of the nation’s top privately-held independent agencies and brokerages.

SouthGroup is a Mississippi-owned company with administrative headquarters in Ridgeland and offices in twenty-one locations across the state.

John Holder, president of SouthGroup in Clinton, said he is pleased that SouthGroup was named to the Top 100.

“It recognizes not only the volume of premium we write, which is mostly in Mississippi, but our ability to provide our clients with array of preferential choices for their insurance requirements,” said Holder.

SouthGroup offers a consultative approach to its clients that involve risk management and complete coverage review on a continuing basis.

“SouthGroup is a twenty-year-old company with a 125-year history,” said Holder. The agency was formed by a merger of twelve of Mississippi’s oldest insurance agencies in 2002. Several of the original agencies that became part of SouthGroup have been serving Mississippi for over one hundred years.
