HYANNIS, MA – Sandpiper Insurance Agency merged with Dowling & O’Neil Insurance Agency in early November 2008.
Sandpiper Insurance has been operating on Cape Cod since 1991. Following the merger, the firm relocated from 12 Enterprise Road in Hyannis to Dowling & O’Neil’s nearby office located at 973 Iyannough Road. Key Sandpiper employees will now work under the Dowling & O’Neil banner.
“It’s the perfect complement of staff and expertise,” said Rob Miller, Principal of Dowling & O’Neil Insurance. “With the additional staff, we now have 22 customer service representatives dedicated to providing quality service.”
“The merger will benefit our customers,” said Christian Barber, Sandpiper Insurance. “The combined buying power from insurance carriers means more options and competitive pricing for consumers,” he added.
Dowling & O’Neil Insurance Agency has been serving clients in the Cape Cod, South Coast and South Shore regions since 1841. They represent more than twenty insurance carriers and offer personal and commercial insurance.
