CHICAGO–Relation Insurance Services (“Relation”) announced today their acquisition of the assets of Thorn Creek Insurance Services Inc. (Thorn Creek). The transaction went into effect on January 31, 2026; terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
“Joining the Relation team just made sense,” said Troy Alexander, who founded Thorn Creek Insurance in 2011. “Our expertise, our culture, our goals for growth… they all aligned with Relation. Our clients will benefit greatly from the expanded resources we can now offer and our team is excited to help Relation continue their success.”
Headquartered in Springfield, Illinois, Thorn Creek entered the property and casualty industry writing Farm, Business, Livestock, and Commercial Ag, which is still their specialty today. The firm, which has clients coast to coast, also offers home, auto, life, trucking, pollution legal liability, pet business insurance solutions, and more.
“Having grown up on a sizable grain and livestock operation, Troy has a deep passion for the agricultural community,” said Tim Hall, chief executive officer of Relation. “His knowledge in these areas is a perfect complement to Relation’s long history of leadership in Ag insurance, and his team’s passion for helping customers—both in Ag and other lines of business—goes hand-in-hand with our own customer-first approach.”
