WALNUT CREEK, Calif., Oct. 13, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- OLI Insurance Services, Inc., a subsidiary of Heffernan Insurance Brokers providing market access and support services to local insurance agencies, has acquired Rose City Associates effective October 1, 2021. The Portland, Oregon-based Rose City Associates focuses on a variety of commercial lines and personal insurance products for clients in Oregon and beyond.

Pete Lackner and Bob Asher created Rose City Associates in 2012 through a merger of their respective agencies, and will continue to lead their team of employees following the transaction. The business will operate autonomously as Heffernan Rose City, leveraging OLI's and Heffernan's market access, resources, and support to grow the agency.

"We are excited about the new opportunities and resources this provides and the ability to continue serving our clients in the same manner to which they have become accustomed," said Pete Lackner and Bob Asher.

"We are very excited to expand our Heffernan network into Oregon. Rose City has a fantastic team with a loyal following, and we are excited to be able to bring them more resources, carrier access, and support which, in turn, will help Rose city bring even more solutions to their customers," said John Prichard Jr., President of OLI Insurance Services. "We couldn't be more excited to start working with this team."
