The ERIE Difference

Since 1925, we’ve been providing the protection you need and the service you expect – all at a great price. See why more than 90% of customers stay with us year after year.

We're a part of the community

Over 5,000 employees and 12,000 independent agents live and work in hometowns like yours.

We’re driven to give back to our communities, from delivering Meals on Wheels and coaching Little League, to helping people rebuild after a catastrophe. We know that our customers trust us to help them when they’re faced with the worst. We’re proud to be there when they need us the most.

Products that protect you without surprises.

Our auto, home, business and life insurance is rooted in the principles of honest, decency, service and of course, affordability.


"My son had his first fender bender so I called my ERIE Agent for advice about how a claim would affect our rates. She explained the surcharges we would get and how it was calculated. I’ve dealt with several insurance companies over the years. For once it was nice to talk to somebody who could explain it to me -- so great that my insurance company actually makes sense."

OUR FOUNDING PURPOSE

The founders had very high principles in mind when they started the company on April 20, 1925. And ERIE’s Founding Purpose has never been lost sight of since.
To provide our Policyholders with as near perfect protection, as near perfect service as is humanly possible and to do so at the lowest possible cost.   
H.O. HIRT, FOUNDER

We're committed to a culture of service.

Our founder H.O. Hirt raised the letters ERIE out of the word SERvIcE to remind us of the high bar we set for ourselves. What’s our secret? It’s our agents and employees who follow the Golden Rule – treating others as you would want to be treated.
