A Foundation Of History By Brooke Foster

1947

lfa Insurance was built on a strong A foundation. Its presence came about through the Alabama Farmers

Federation. The Federation founded the insurance company while housed at rental offices at the Fourth National Bank Building in downtown Montgomery in 1946. Membership growth led to the expansion of Alfa buildings over the years to better serve its member. From its humble beginning of offering fire insurance on farm buildings, Alfa has grown to provide coverage for almost 1.2 million homes, cars, farms and business, as well as more than $31 billion in life insurance. The evolution from smaller buildings in downtown Montgomery to corporate headquarters on the city’s East South Boulevard allows Alfa’s team members to better serve its customers and employees in the 11 states where it conducts business.
