Acquisition Expands IOA’s Footprint in Key Growth Markets, Adding Specialized Expertise in Real Estate and Automotive Dealerships
LONGWOOD, Fla. (April 24, 2026) — Insurance Office of America (IOA), one of the largest privately held independent insurance brokerages in the United States, today announced that it has acquired certain assets of Insurance Queen LLC, including its book of business. Insurance Queen is a respected South Florida brokerage with deep expertise in real estate and automotive dealership insurance. The move reinforces IOA’s commitment to expanding its presence across the Southeast region and delivering specialized solutions to complex, relationship-driven accounts.
“The acquisition of Insurance Queen assets strengthens IOA’s Southeast region by adding a highly respected, niche-focused team. Strategically, this move enhances IOA’s ability to deliver tailored solutions in key growth sectors while expanding our footprint in South Florida,” said Regional President Bob Lopker. “As we continue to grow, IOA remains focused on partnering with like-minded agencies that share our entrepreneurial culture and client-first mindset.”
The Insurance Queen transaction brings strong carrier relationships, specialized market knowledge, and a proven track record of client service to IOA. By combining the niche capabilities with IOA’s national resources, technology, and scale, the organization is better positioned to deliver customized insurance solutions in key sectors while accelerating regional growth.
“It is our hope that we can bring even more clients and resources to IOA based on our decades in the industry, while also retaining our current clients by providing even better service and market options,” said Debbie Aichele, partner at Insurance Queen. “Our team is also excited to expand their knowledge, and we are confident IOA will handle our clients’ needs with the same personable nature they’ve come to expect.”
Founded in 2011, Insurance Queen built its reputation on a personal, high-touch approach. That commitment to service excellence aligns perfectly with IOA’s own client-first philosophy, and clients can expect the same level of care and attention, backed now by the resources of a national brokerage.
“We are happy that IOA will be able to meet the standard of care we have shown at Insurance Queen and perhaps exceed that standard based on their size and reach in the insurance industry,” said Emily Roberts, founder and president at Insurance Queen.
