About Us

In the summer of 1995, Sir Tom Farmer's unmistakeable tyre and exhaust company branched off into another direction as Kwik-Fit Financial Services was created.


Trading initially in the car insurance market, Chief Exec & Chairman, Sir Tom Farmer was of the belief that, "At Kwik-Fit, the most important person is the customer, and it must be our aim to give 100% customer delight, 100% of the time."


Much has changed since then. Sir Tom came and went, the business has grown exponentially, and we've become a household name for insurance as well as becoming part of the Ageas group; but our commitment to customer delight has continues to be at the core of the company's ethos. 

 

From the original workforce of less than a dozen, we now form a part of a multinational Ageas workforce, numbering over 6,000 in the UK, and over 12,000 across the globe. 

 

The meteoric rise of the company since the mid-90's has resulted in expansion on all fronts, with successes being acknowledged by an abundance of annual industry awards in recent years, including successes in the British Insurance Awards, UK Broker Awards, Insurance Times Awards, and a consistently high score in the Sunday Times 100 Best Companies listings.

 

To ensure the needs of all types of customer were met, Kwik-Fit Insurance introduced two new brands under the KFFS umbrella. The first, Express Insurance, was an acquisition of a motorbike and van Insurance specialist. This acquisition was an instant hit for the business and our customers alike. It allowed us to combine the specialist knowledge of our van and bike insurance brokers with our own unique commitment to customer service to create and develop a fantastic range of insurance productsr for this area of the market.


The other new brand was an internal creation. To cater for the more eco-conscious motorists, The Green Insurance Company was born. This niche insurance intermediary offered environmental incentives to customers and has planted over 2.5 million trees and funded a number of environmental projects in communities across the UK.   Collectively, the three KFFS brands endeavour to cover off every possible angle for insurance customers, providing the best cover and service we can.

By expanding the number of brands in our group, as well as keeping the company's values at the core of every business decision and transaction made, KFFS continues to be a prosperous and forward-thinking business. Moving away from solely insuring vehicles has also aided the group in terms of prosperity. We also offer a whole host of additional products, including supplementary car, van and bike products, home insurance, pet insurance, and more! 

We're always on the lookout to broaden and improve our product range to meet the needs of you, the customer. We've got an exciting future ahead here at KFFS, and we look forward to catering for your insurance needs.
