COLUMBUS, OH – Insurance Agency of Ohio was honored Wednesday, November 16 at the Conway Center for Family Business’ 24th Annual Family Business Awards program with Milestone Achievement award for reaching its 55th anniversary in business.

The program was established in 1998 to recognize excellence in family business in categories such as Milestone Achievement, Family Business of the Year, Succession Planning, and Rising Star.

“Family businesses are the backbone of the American economy and are vital to the Central Ohio economy and community,” said Jill Hofmans, executive director of the Conway Center for Family Business. “Insurance Agency of Ohio, through its continued success and resiliency, deserves this recognition of longevity.”

More than 30% of all family-owned businesses make the transition into the second generation. About 12% will still be viable into the third generation, with only 3% of all family businesses operating at the fourth-generation level and beyond.

The Family Business Awards Program is made possible through the generous support of Columbus CEO, First Merchants, Gryphon Financial Partners, Taft/, and Porter Wright.
