Brown & Brown (Cannabis)

Brown & Brown, Inc. traces its start to 1939, when Adrian Brown and his cousin Charles Owen opened an agency in Daytona Beach, Florida, where the company's headquarters campus now stands. It reports more than 700 locations across its team of companies, about 23,000 teammates in 19 countries and $5.9 billion in 2025 revenue. In August 2025 it completed the acquisition of Accession Risk Management Group, adding more than 5,000 teammates, and the former Risk Strategies cannabis web address now forwards to Brown & Brown's cannabis page. Brown & Brown acts as a broker representing the buyer.

Its cannabis team builds insurance programs for cultivation, manufacturing, distribution and retail operations, public and private. The coverage list runs to general and product liability, crop, product recall, cyber, environmental liability, workers' compensation, excess and umbrella, property and business interruption, auto and transportation, crime and fiduciary, kidnap and ransom, builders' risk, D&O, employment practices, key person and employee benefits. The page also points to cannabis-specific captive and alternative risk solutions, fully insured and self-insured benefits options, help with difficult life insurance placements, and peer benchmarking and analytics to size limits.

Buyers reach the cannabis team through Brown & Brown's contact form; the page does not name team members, client counts or states served. Brown & Brown does not publish pricing. For larger operators, the captive and alternative risk option and employee benefits support under the same broker are the clearest differences from the cannabis-only brokers in this category. Its insight library includes articles on hemp market risk and the growth of the cannabis industry, and its Market Trends Report covers commercial insurance conditions more broadly.
