ARU is proud to announce that we’ve been named the 8th fastest-growing company in the Triad region! This marks our fourth consecutive year on the Triad Business Journal’s (TBJ) Fast 50 list, and we’re honored to reflect on the journey that made this achievement possible. Just three years ago, we were a team of 8—now we have over 40 employees, with more talent on the way. Through disciplined efforts, our team has developed sustainable insurance products that solve legacy business challenges. This success has led to partnerships with leading brokerages, allowing us to deliver solutions to policyholders across the US and expand our impact. In the article, CEO William G. Johnson III, CIC, AFIS states, “Our target markets have been ripe for change and innovation. We used our intellectual human capital and technology to capture more market share.” While our growth has been remarkable, we’re just getting started. As we continue to take on a wider range of risks, we remain committed to scaling efficiently and delivering exceptional value.

It’s officially fall, which means birds have begun migrating south in search of warmer weather. Migratory patterns bring a risk for poultry farmers everywhere, as birds can travel thousands of miles and spread diseases like avian influenza. This is especially relevant in areas that fall along major migratory flyways, where the risk of outbreaks is heightened. Check out our latest blog to explore the link between migration and disease spread, see county-specific visuals, and get crucial tips to protect your flocks before an outbreak occurs.

While insurance is designed to mitigate the financial impact of a loss, every claim comes with costs. As a claims administration company, it’s particularly disheartening to see claims that could have been prevented. Generator failure is among the most frequent and avoidable losses we observe in the agricultural sector. When livestock, such as poultry, relies on a highly regulated environment, a generator failure can quickly escalate into a costly disaster. In the six recent examples shown above, five of the losses could have been prevented with proactive maintenance and checks. This National Preparedness Month, follow these tips recommended by the National Poultry Technology Center at Auburn University to ensure your generator will stand up: 1. Ensure a sufficient fuel supply. 2. Keep extra replacement parts and filters readily available. 3. Maintain the quality of stored fuel and fuel tanks. 4. Safeguard generator and transfer switch electronics. 5. Install a manual bypass key switch for emergencies. 6. Ensure proper ventilation for your generator. 7. Provide regular maintenance and servicing for your generator. Alex Shaw, General Manager at Agribusiness Risk Services adds, “Alarms are your first line of defense in an outage and should be connected to back-up power and tested regularly. Additionally, several team members should be trained to operate the generator and replace parts as needed.” He continues, “Even if you’ve taken steps to prepare for failures, it’s important to remember that all backup parts have a shelf life and improper storage accelerates their expiration.” Don’t wait until the power goes out to test your generator and spare parts—by then, it's often too late.
