Helping You Protect What You’ve Built for Today and Tomorrow

by Bobby Cherry on December 5, 2025

Running a business comes with a lot of moving parts—and a lot of responsibility. From keeping operations running smoothly to protecting employees, customers and your reputation, there’s no shortage of decisions to make or risks to manage. That’s why choosing the right insurance partner matters.

Erie Insurance ranked #1 in customer satisfaction among small business insurance providers, according to the J.D. Power 2025 U.S. Small Commercial Insurance Study. This recognition reflects feedback from business owners like you—and the confidence you’ve placed in us to help protect what you’ve built.

It’s an honor—and a responsibility we take seriously.

What Business Owners Value Most

The J.D. Power 2025 U.S. Small Commercial Insurance Study measured overall satisfaction across seven dimensions including trust, price for coverage, product/coverage offerings, ease of doing business, people, problem resolution and digital channels. ERIE ranked best in class for price for coverage, ease of doing business and people.

These results speak to what sets Erie Insurance apart—and why small business customers continue to put their trust in us.

But we know that recognition is just one moment. Our real focus is showing up for customers every day: helping business owners plan ahead, manage risks and recover with confidence if the unexpected happens.

Here When It Matters Most: The ERIE Claims Experience

No one plans for setbacks—but when something unexpected happens, how your insurance company responds can make all the difference.

At Erie Insurance, we believe claims service is more than a process—it’s a promise. A promise to be there when you need us most. A promise to listen, understand and guide you through the next steps with compassion and clarity.

Our local claims teams work alongside your agent to help you recover with confidence. Whether it’s damage to your business property, an injury or an interruption to your operations, you’ll work with people who care—people who treat your situation like it’s their own.

From start to resolution, we focus on what matters: helping you move forward and get back to what you do best. It’s service that’s personal, thoughtful and grounded in our commitment to putting people first.

Because when you choose ERIE, you're not just choosing a policy—you’re choosing people who stand by their word and show up when it counts.

Risk Control Services That Help You Stay a Step Ahead

At Erie Insurance, protection goes beyond the policy. Our risk control services are available to help business owners reduce the chance of costly disruptions before they happen.

We offer:

  • Guidance on workplace safety and hazard prevention
  • Loss control visits to identify exposures
  • Industry-specific resources and checklists
  • Support tailored to your unique operations and challenges

Whether you're facing a regulatory concern, updating safety procedures or preparing for seasonal risks, our risk control team—and your local agent—can help you take practical steps to reduce exposure and protect your people, property and processes.
