Security First Insurance celebrated its 15th anniversary on Tuesday, July 14, according to a press release.
Headquartered in Ormond Beach since it issued its first homeowner's insurance policy, Security First recently opened its new 136,000 square-foot building at Ormond Crossings to support company growth and provide more amenities to its workforce of over 400 employees.
The company transitioned employees to work from home for three months due to the coronavirus pandemic, and in mid-June, created two groups of employees to work rotational shifts, therefore reducing the number of employees working from their headquarters, the press release states.
“We are grateful for the opportunity to grow our business over the last 15 years to serve more than 250,000 customers located across the state and throughout this pandemic,” said Melissa Burt DeVriese, president of Security First Insurance, in the press release. “Our mission is to be there for our customers, storm after storm, year after year, no matter what kind of storm we face."
