Gantt Insurance brings Farmville roots to conversations on the road and at the office
At the Farmville agency, a discussion of commercial coverage can take place on a towing company’s own lot.
For Gantt Insurance Agency, a conversation about coverage does not always begin across an office desk. The Farmville-based business describes agents visiting customers at their workplaces, including trips to towing-company lots to discuss the vehicles and operations those businesses need to insure.
That approach builds on an agency founded by brothers Don and John Gantt in 1988. Both had worked in insurance before establishing the company. The business has since expanded beyond Farmville, while its leadership continues to include the founding family: Don is listed as owner and CEO, and John as owner and president.
Commercial vehicles are a particular focus. Gantt identifies commercial auto coverage as one of its specialties and describes work with businesses ranging from a single truck to larger fleets. Its towing-industry offering gives that focus a more specific setting, with agents available to discuss coverage at a customer's lot.
The agency also serves households and other businesses. Its listed lines include home and auto insurance, general liability and workers' compensation, alongside coverage for boats, recreational vehicles and car dealerships. Those offerings bring personal and commercial needs into the same agency, supported by a roster of insurance carriers.
Personal contact sits alongside digital access. Through its online Client Center, customers can view policies, print insurance identification cards, update their contact information and download documents. The site also provides carrier-contact links, giving clients routes to routine information between conversations with an agent.
Farmville remains a place to reach that team directly. The office at 1801 East Third Street lists weekday hours from 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. and Saturday hours from 9 a.m. to noon. Customers can call 434-392-7201, and John's published email is john@ganttagency.com.
From the founding brothers to its current mix of office visits, workplace conversations and online services, Gantt presents a business organized around maintaining contact as customers' insurance needs change.
