INSURANCE INTRODUCING GALLAGHER Previously Crombie Lockwood | New Zealand Institute of Driver Educators

Established in 1978 Crombie Lockwood grew to become New Zealand’s largest independently owned insurance broker through a clear focus on client needs, client service and innovative client solutions. That growth was fuelled by a clear strategy, client faith and competitive performance. Our success caught the eye of Gallagher, a $53 billion American conglomerate, resulting in the purchase of the company in April 2014. However it is simply business as usual. The result is a highly skilled, energetic team of over 1000 with a well-rounded perspective on today’s business demands & an extension of a global network across 850 offices in 130 countries. Now known as Gallagher Insurance New Zealand, the team has the energy to push the boundaries to meet those demands. Demands like inventive product solutions; demands like cost effectiveness at every level; and above them all the demand for service. Gallagher’s people are dedicated to providing easy access information, prompt enquiry resolution and swift, equitable claims settlement. Energy, commitment and the highest technical skills guarantee the delivery of a better answer to every question.
