About Golden Circle Insurance Agency, Inc.

About Golden Circle Insurance Agency, Inc.

A Legacy Built on Trust, Community, and Family Values

For over seven decades, the Golden Circle name has stood as a beacon of reliability and community service in Tennessee. What began as a humble vision during a church service in July 1950 has grown into a multi-generational family business dedicated to protecting the dreams and aspirations of families throughout our great state.

Our Rich Heritage

Our story begins with Charles Allen (C.A.) Rawls, a visionary who established the Sons and Daughters of Golden Circle during a local church service in 1950. Driven by a deep commitment to serve his community, C.A. Rawls laid the foundation for what would become Golden Circle Life Insurance Company. By June 1958, the company had established its home office right here in Brownsville, Tennessee, along with district offices in Memphis, Nashville, and Knoxville.

From these modest beginnings, Golden Circle Life Insurance Company flourished, eventually serving approximately 22,000 policyholders representing 12,000 families across Tennessee. Our dedication to excellence and community service earned us recognition as one of the top 100 African American owned insurance companies in the nation by 2001—a testament to the values and vision that C.A. Rawls instilled in our organization.

Evolution and Growth

In 2001, the descendants of C.A. Rawls embarked on an exciting new chapter with the establishment of Golden Circle Insurance Agency, Inc. This independently owned Property & Casualty insurance agency was created to expand upon our existing foundation, offering a complete spectrum of insurance services to the communities we've proudly served for generations.

This evolution allows us to provide comprehensive insurance solutions under one roof, something we've long envisioned for our clients. No longer do we need to refer our valued customers elsewhere; we can now offer the full range of protection they need to safeguard their most precious assets.

Our Mission Today

As a third-generation family business, we remain deeply rooted in the same communities where our business and family have flourished for over 75 years. Our primary objective is simple yet profound: to provide exceptional insurance services that protect what matters most to you and your family.

We're proud to partner with financially strong, nationally recognized carriers including Travelers, The Hartford, Progressive, Southern Pioneer, GAINSCO, Zurich, National Lloyds, and Berkshire Hathaway. These partnerships ensure that we can offer competitive rates and comprehensive coverage options while maintaining the personalized service that has been our hallmark for decades.

Looking Forward

Today, the third generation of the Golden Circle family is preparing for the future with the same enthusiasm and dedication that has driven us since 1950. We're excited about expanding our services and continuing to serve the families and businesses that have placed their trust in us.

At Golden Circle Insurance Agency, Inc., we understand that insurance isn't just about policies and premiums—it's about protecting the legacy you're building for your children and grandchildren. We look forward to serving you and your families, helping you safeguard all the things you've worked so hard to achieve.
