Rigton insurance looking to grow after acquisition

Leeds-based coach and business insurance specialist, Rigton Insurance Brokers, is looking to invest in its growth following its acquisition by PIB Group.

Formed in 1974 Rigton Insurance Services specialises in providing niche products to the transport industry including bus and coach insurance, schemes within classic preserved bus, heritage and narrow gauge railway as well as the model retailers and manufacturers sector. The business also holds Corporate Chartered Insurance Broker status.

The existing Rigton team remains with the business including Roland Wilcox and Margaret Wilcox who are providing support on a consultancy basis.

Roland Wilcox said: “We are delighted to become part of PIB Group. This presents us with the opportunity to invest in our business and to utilise the resources of the wider group to strengthen our offering to our specialist areas. Their management has demonstrated their passion to move forward by acquisition and growth within niche areas of business and we feel Rigton will develop very well within their well thought out and planned strategy for the future. We are very impressed with the professionalism and friendliness of everyone at PIB and we are already enjoying working together.”
