​Alliant Acquires Western Carwash Insurance Program

Acquisition by Alliant Americas propels middle market division into the growing carwash sector

NEWPORT BEACH, CA — Alliant Insurance Services is positioned to become the insurance partner of choice for carwash businesses throughout the West with its acquisition of the Western Carwash Insurance Program. The transaction places the company’s Alliant Americas middle market division at the forefront of a strategic and growing industry vertical.

“Clients of all sizes are looking for an insurance partner that can deliver specialized solutions built around their industry’s unique risks and exposures,” said Tom Corbett, Chairman and CEO of Alliant. “Our acquisition of the Western Carwash Insurance Program demonstrates our continued dedication to serving businesses in the West and our long-proven commitment to being the specialty insurance leader.” 

Since 1994, the Western Carwash Insurance Program has been the region’s premier insurance solution for carwash owners and operators. As the exclusive insurance program of the Western Carwash Association (WCA), the program offers the industry’s most competitive rates and comprehensive coverage for property and casualty and workers’ compensation insurance.

The program is led by Sam Furno, a former carwash operator and longtime industry specialist. It is managed by seasoned risk professionals with a proven history of delivering insurance and risk management solutions designed around the unique exposures of the carwash business. According to Furno, Alliant’s national platform and vast resources will expand the program’s reach and service profile.

“As one of the nation’s largest and most entrepreneurial insurance brokerage firms, Alliant adds a solid foundation of strength to our program,” said Furno. “For more than two decades, our clients have looked to us as the industry’s insurance partner of choice. As part of the Alliant team, we will further strengthen this position and expand our reach to an even larger community of carwash owners and operators.”

Furno, along with program’s entire management team and staff, will join Alliant and continue to service clients from its Sacramento offices. Terms of the agreement were not disclosed.
