Eastern Shore Associates was founded in 1986 when a group of three smaller independent agencies decided to pool their resources to better serve their customers. The focus was to develop "big agency"​ capabilities, while maintaining the "small agency"​ approach to conducting business by helping their neighbors. In 1991, ESA became an ESOP (Employee Stock Ownership Plan) company, having the employees own a portion of the company. In January of 2009, ESA became 100% proudly owned by its employees. Today, Eastern Shore Associates has grown into an organization with over 70 insurance professionals operating all across Western and Upstate New York. Our size allows for significantly greater access to insurance markets.
