About hanford insurance

A Tradition of Excellence Across Generations

In 1855, James Manning Hosford founded an insurance agency in Geneseo. In those early years, fire insurance was the main business. Over the years, the name changed and the lines of insurance coverage we offer has broadened. We have adapted to meet the changing insurance needs of our many clients and take pride in our superior service.

Today, Hanford Insurance Agency, Inc. is an independent insurance agency serving thousands of clients in several states with the individualized attention and professionalism for which we are known. We take the time to understand your unique needs. With experience as underwriters, adjusters, brokers, and buyers, we know the ins and outs of the process and help you avoid any pitfalls.
