Our Story
Our Story
Founded in 2009, Tredd was formed by a group of exceptional people who brought an aggressive style of work, creative thinking, and set of firm values that were unique in the brokerage world. These values – delivering tailored insurance solutions, providing the highest level of service, and working tirelessly to deliver the best pricing – remain at the core of our firm today.
In August 2012, Tredd Insurance Brokers Ltd. merged with H.E. Hunt & Associates, and soon after, in March 2013, amalgamated with BKI Risk Management. Both Calgary-based firms had a long history of serving commercial, oil & gas and energy clients in Western Canada. By partnering with these two premier firms, Tredd significantly strengthened its Alberta presence and industry expertise – building on the establishment of its Calgary office in 2010.
Today, we serve a broad range of needs in a broad range of areas. Our clients choose us on critical risk and insurance issues because we have earned their respect. Our motto and constant goal is to foster relationships that allow us to support your business and risk objectives collaboratively.
