About Us
Our mission at Town & Country Insurance is a very simple one. Every day we aspire to practice the Golden Rule; to treat others as you would like to be treated. We’re all looking for value in what we buy and to have the peace of mind that we’ve done so. Insurance is a vehicle to peace of mind to ensure that you are protected against loss. As an independent agent, we contract with many different companies to meet the needs of our clients because not all sizes fit everyone. Couple this with a team of experienced agents and we believe we’re well positioned to provide value to all parties while practicing the Golden Rule. We keep this in mind when we provide everything from business insurance to workers compensation insurance to home owners insurance.
A little history
The agency was founded by Glen Wisdom in 1963 and was called "Wisdom, Your Insurance Man". The agency was owned by Dent County Bank until bought by Town & Country Bank in 2000, at which time the name was changed. We are a wholly own subsidiary of Town & Country Bank.( www.tcbanks.com ) We are primarily a Property & Casualty agency with a high percentage of commercial business insurance customers. We added a branch office in one of our bank locations at Rolla, Missouri in 2008. We purchased the Hagler Insurance Agency in Licking, Missouri in 2013, and retained the employees at that branch. In 2018 we opened a new branch office in Mountain Grove, Missouri. The branch is located right next to Town & Country Bank on Main Street.
