Matlack & Company

What Matlack & Company does

Matlack & Company is an independent insurance agency headquartered in Glendora, New Jersey, founded in 1985 by Mike Matlack as a family-owned brokerage serving the South Jersey region across New Jersey and Pennsylvania. The agency operates through partnerships with over 32 insurance carriers — including Liberty Mutual, AmTrust, Cumberland Mutual, Foremost, and Guard Insurance Group — enabling it to offer a broad portfolio of personal lines (auto, homeowners, life, property, renters, umbrella), commercial lines (business liability, commercial auto, commercial property, workers' compensation, cyber), and specialized products (boat, motorcycle, RV, collector car, specialty vehicle). Customers are acquired through direct phone sales, online quote requests, and walk-in consultations at the local office, with supporting content marketing and local SEO on the company website.

The business model is a traditional independent agency commission structure: Matlack & Company earns carrier commissions on policies placed and renewed, rather than charging customers directly or operating a proprietary technology platform. Pricing is individualized, quote-based, and dependent on customer risk profile, coverage needs, and carrier underwriting criteria, with policy bundling offered as a savings lever. The agency holds A+ rating recognition and dual NJ/PA licensing, and customer segmentation is hybrid — primarily individuals/families and local SMBs, with a smaller niche segment of specialty vehicle owners.

There is no disclosed proprietary technology stack; the firm relies on standard agency-carrier relationships, CRM-style customer management, and human agent consultation rather than a software platform. The organization remains founder-led and family-run, with no disclosed external investors, funding rounds, M&A activity, or leadership transitions, and operates at a small scale of 11–50 employees within a single regional footprint.
