Coast Capital Insurance Services Ltd announces brand transition

June 11, 2019

Effective October 1, 2019, Coast Capital Insurance Services Ltd (CCIS) transitioned its brand to Western Coast Insurance Services Ltd to further align with our national brand.

Acquired by Western Financial Group as CCIS in 2013, our rebranded Western Coast Insurance Services will offer the same locations, hours of operation and business and personal insurance products and services.

A division of Western, our Western Coast branches across Vancouver Island and the Lower Mainland are proud to have provided our customers in British Columbia the right security for 40 years and counting.

Combined, our Western and Western Coast insurance branches province wide have grown to over 70 locations, each with our insurance professionals ready to serve customers today and as their requirements change.

By listening to our customers, we have built a diverse product range to reflect modern needs. At Western Coast, our in-house underwriting, claims and Customer Contact Centre teams provide a seamless insurance experience.

“Protecting people and communities is central to everything we do,” Kenny Nicholls, President and CEO of Western Financial Group, said. “At Western Coast Insurance Services, we’ve committed ourselves to your security.”

Even as our brand has changed, our longstanding relationship with our partner Coast Capital Savings remains important to us and will continue well into the future. As we share our gratitude toward our people for their loyalty during this transition, we must also celebrate our customers whose care for our teams helped shape our vision.

Visit us at our branches in person today or at www.westerncoastinsurance.ca to learn more about the rebranding.
