Western Financial Group has added two insurance agencies to its western Canadian network, one in Camrose, Alta. and one in Lloydminster, Sask.

Located in Camrose, Mirror Lake Agencies (formerly Mirror Lake Insurance Services Ltd.) serves a growing population base in central Alberta.

“We feel Mirror Lake Agencies has significant potential for both the company and our customers,” says Tom Dutton, president and COO of WFG Agency Network Inc. “We’re also very pleased that the current manager, Joanne Schultz will remain on the team and will continue to provide the high-quality service that is the hallmark of Western Financial Group.”

Founded in 1969, Wilford Agencies (formerly Wilford Agencies 1994 Ltd.) has built a significant customer base of both commercial and personal insurance lines. Located in Lloydminster, Sask., Wilford Agencies will complement Western Financial Group’s existing Lloydminster, Alta. office.

“Wilford Agencies has had a very strong, long-term presence in Lloydminster and provides a very solid foundation upon which to build,” says Dutton. “Again, we are very pleased that current manager, Elmer Exner and staff are joining our team.”

“Both agencies fit well with Western Financial Group’s strategy of servicing western Canada’s rural marketplace,” says Scott Tannas, president and CEO of Western Financial Group.

Western Financial Group has more than 50 offices in towns and small cities across Western Canada, and serves a customer base of more than 150,000.
