Under the direction of Justin Bealhen, vice president of Field Operations, the United Heartland team will explore opportunities for appointing agents and identifying qualified customers within the new areas. 

"Our high-touch service model allows us to be nimble and responsive to customer needs, and we look forward to working with agency partners who share that philosophy," said Bealhen.  "We are confident our value proposition and tireless commitment to controlling our customer's total cost of risk will be attractive to potential customers in the regions we serve."
