We’re one of the largest insurance brokers in the world, the #1 Largest Insurance Broker in Massachusetts, and we’re right here in New England.
The HUB Spencer MA insurance office was originally William Palumbo Insurance Agency. This agency was started by William Palumbo in 1932. In the 1980’s William’s daughter, Marie Larocca, and son in law took over and extended the business from a single location agency to a six location Business. After opening their 2nd office in 1990, Marie and her husband, John, purchased Gregson Insurance Agency in 2009, equating to their third location. The 3rd office of William Palumbo, located in Spencer, Massachusetts, and the William Palumbo Insurance agency was acquired by HUB International New England in 2011.
The agency became a venture of Personal, Business and Financial insurance. Our carriers and clients have recognized our agency for its professional and charitable contributions in the communities we have served for several decades.
FieldEddy Insurance traces its roots back to 1849. In October 2014, FieldEddy Insurance became part of HUB International, a leading global insurance broker which is rated ninth as a Top Global Insurance Broker by Best’s Review. We are confident that the acquisition will allow our clients to have access to the many resources that are offered by a globally-recognized firm, yet will allow us to continue offering our clients with the close working relationships and quality customer service that they deserve and have come to expect.
