The first Chicago location will be led by veteran franchisees and husband-wife, Laura Fernandez and Jhon Alvarez. Laura Fernandez previously had a successful career in insurance, and Jhon was a former Estrella agency manager and is a seasoned construction entrepreneur.

We look forward to the continued growth and success of our brand in the Chicago market," states Nicolas Estrella, Jr., CEO of Estrella Insurance.
