Starting out as a family-owned New Zealand business 26 years ago, TLC Insurance has had a strong connection with forestry from the start.
Original owner and TLC Insurance founder Keith Penny had played rugby with logging contractor Paul Olsen (Olsen Forest Management / OFM) in their earlier years, and had built a friendship that lasted beyond the rugby field.
Wanting to provide the forestry industry with insurance that catered to the needs of contractors throughout New Zealand, Keith engaged Paul to provide feedback in the development of policy that was tailored and specialist to the unique needs and risks of the forestry industry.
While the company has grown to be part of a broader group, that specialist forestry industry knowledge and understanding carries through today.
“TLC is committed to delivering an efficient claims turnaround, a diverse product range and continued product innovation,” says Executive Director Andrew Reid.
“We have access to key people with vast experience and expertise and a commitment to premium stability.”
As more competition enters the New Zealand market, TLC is encouraging FICA members to reach out.
“As we embrace this new competition entering the NZ market, we want to assure FICA members that we will look to continue to support them as they have supported TLC,” says Andrew.
“Our commitment extends to remaining competitive with any offering that maybe presented and continuing to offer a consistent approach to FICA Members’ insurance renewals and the service they receive at claims time.”
“We’d like to take this opportunity to thank all FICA members for their loyalty over the years and we look forward to seeing what the future holds.”
