Erie Indemnity Company, the management company of Erie Insurance, celebrated its 100th year in business on April 20. Over the past two years, Erie Insurance has planted 100 shade trees along East 5th and 6th Streets between French and Parade Streets to mark the centennial milestone here in Erie.
Since 1925, the company has committed itself to service, with the founder, H.O. Hirt, raising the letters 'ERIE' out of the word sERvIcE as a reminder to its agents, employees, and policyholders of the company's commitment. To this day, the company still holds to its original tagline, Above All in Service. According to the company, its 14,000 local agents and 6,800 employees all live by the Golden Rule — treating people the same way they'd like to be treated.
Erie Insurance has grown to become a Fortune 500 company conducting business across 12 states and the District of Columbia, as the nation's 12th-largest homeowners insurer, 13th-largest automobile insurer, and 13th-largest commercial lines insurer.
It took the company 60 years to reach its first million policies, and only three years to grow from six to seven million policies, reaching nearly $12 billion in premium in 2024.
