HOUSTON, TX – Artemis Insurance, the parent brand of Texan Insurance, Ozark Insurance, and Marek Insurance, proudly announces the acquisition of Baton Rouge-based Tyner Jeter Insurance, a respected agency built on decades of trust, service, and community commitment.
This acquisition marks another milestone in Artemis’s mission to scale its high-touch, high-integrity insurance model, bringing expanded capabilities and resources to the people of Louisiana—without sacrificing the local expertise and personalized care that clients expect and deserve.
With more than 118 combined years of experience, John Tyner, Johnny Tyner, and Tommy Jeter have been pillars of the Louisiana insurance community. Formerly part of McInnis Tyner Agency since 1972, the team launched Tyner Jeter Insurance in August 2012 with a vision to deliver insurance solutions grounded in solid work ethic, integrity, and an unwavering commitment to the community. That dedication is reflected in the confidence and loyalty of their clients across the Baton Rouge region.
“The legacy of Tyner Jeter Insurance aligns seamlessly with the values we uphold at Artemis,” said Rahim Virani, President of Artemis Insurance. “Their history, their heart for service, and their commitment to doing things the right way are exactly what we look for in a partner. We’re honored to bring them into the Artemis family.”
Key benefits of the acquisition include:
- No disruption to current policies or client-agent relationships
- Expanded product offerings across personal and commercial lines
- Access to advanced technology for more efficient policy and claims management
- A stronger, broader support system backed by Artemis’s national capabilities
“Joining Artemis allows us to continue doing what we do best—serving our community with integrity—while gaining access to new tools and support to better serve our clients,” said Tommy Jeter. “This is a natural evolution that honors our past and embraces our future.”
This acquisition reinforces Artemis Insurance’s belief that insurance is more than a transaction—it’s a relationship built on trust, education, and enduring service. By partnering with Tyner Jeter, Artemis continues to redefine what modern insurance should look and feel like: personal, informed, and built to last. Kyle Watson, Managing Partner for Ozark Insurance, will expand his role to oversee both Louisiana-based agencies.
