Moore Hemsworth Insurance Group Inc

What Moore Hemsworth Insurance Group Inc does

Moore Hemsworth Insurance Group Inc. is a privately held, family-owned insurance brokerage founded in 1886 in Listowel, Ontario, currently operating across three Southwestern Ontario offices (Listowel HQ, Stratford, and Dublin). The firm distributes personal lines (home, auto, boat, tenant, cottage), commercial lines (property, general liability, cyber, business interruption, commercial auto), farm insurance, event/special event liability, and a specialized Dentist Insurance Program developed over 25+ years in partnership with Ken Barth Insurance Ltd. Revenue is generated through commissions earned on policies placed with a network of 20+ Canadian carriers including Aviva, Gore Mutual, Wawanesa, Intact, Definity, RSA, and several regional mutuals.

The brokerage operates a relationship-led, consultative go-to-market model: brokers work one-on-one with clients by phone, email, and in-person to design customized coverage packages, with a self-serve client portal layered on top for existing policyholders. Pricing is quote-based and risk-adjusted with annual billing cadence; bundling discounts across home and auto are offered. The firm is part of the Collectivfide Brokerage Network, which provides shared operational standards and carrier access, while Moore Hemsworth retains independent ownership under fifth-generation Hemsworth family stewardship (Jon Hemsworth as President/Managing Partner since 2000). The core technology surface is a third-party client portal; no proprietary underwriting or distribution platform is disclosed.

The customer base is concentrated in Southwestern Ontario and spans individual consumers, homeowners, vehicle and recreational-vehicle owners, farmers, SMBs, event organizers, and dental professionals. Long-tenured multi-generational client relationships (some exceeding 25-35 years) and multi-policy bundling support retention, while community sponsorship activity (local sports teams, hospice, Lions Club) reinforces local brand presence. Revenue, headcount, and detailed growth metrics are not publicly disclosed; the firm appears to operate as a stable, owner-operated regional brokerage rather than a scaling insurtech.
