King Risk Partners, a prominent brokerage and insurance agency based in Gainesville, Florida, has acquired Bruce Hendry Insurance (BHI), located in Immokalee, Florida. Established 45 years ago, BHI offers a range of insurance products, including auto, home, business, and farm coverage, through carriers such as Nationwide, Travelers, Progressive, and Mercury.
