About Howe Insurance
Our family has a long heritage in the insurance business. Ross C. Swartz – Jimmy’s grandfather and Todd’s great-grandfather – started an insurance agency in Farmer City in 1930.
Since then, with the exception of a few years between when Grandpa Ross sold his agency to the time Jimmy entered the industry, our family has continuously provided insurance to families and businesses in East Central Illinois.
Eight decades later, we started the Howe Insurance Store, a one-stop shop for all your insurance needs. Think of us as discount store meets local merchant.
You get the lowest rates everyday on a wide assortment of insurance products, along with the kind of personal service you long for, but often don’t get anymore.
