Hull & Co. Acquires Big Sky Underwriters

April 8, 2008

Hull & Co. Inc. has acquired substantially all of the assets of Missoula, Mont.-based Big Sky Underwriters Inc.
“The people of Big Sky are well respected in the Northwest marketplace,” said Bob McGrew, executive vice president of Hull.

Big Sky Underwriters was founded in 1955. The business will continue to operate from its offices in Missoula as a division of Hull & Co. M. Ruth Havican will remain onboard for the transition, and Scott L. Tuxbury will become the head of office for Big Sky going forward.

With just more than $2.2 million in revenue, Big Sky adds to the growing Northwest operations of Hull, according to Tim Neff, senior vice president and head of Hull’s Western Operations. “In the course of a few months we have established a very strong presence in the Northwest portion of our country and we are looking forward to growing there.” In addition to Missoula, Big Sky has offices in Oregon and Washington, and also does business in the states of Wyoming and Idaho.

Hull & Co. Inc. is a subsidiary of Brown & Brown Inc.
