History

Established in 1989.

Pacific Benefit Planners is a locally owned and operated business. We began as a dream in the back room of our home in 1988 based on our belief that small businesses should receive the same level of insurance professionalism and representation that large businesses received. We established our first office in Eugene in 1990. We opened the Portland office in 1994.

We grow with our clients and the changing legislative and business environment. Through frequent client contact, intensive education and research, and participation in business organizations and community activities, we anticipate and identify changes, needs, and trends that relate to our clients. We add new product lines, licensed staff, technology capability, and streamline systems to meet the product and service needs of our clients.

Pacific Benefit Planners is certified DBE, WBE and ESB (#7673). We are the only certified, independent insurance agency headquartered in Oregon providing a full program of business consulting
