Illinois Casualty Company

The fascinating path of private enterprise can be traced back to the original footprints of assurance called firemarks. It was the firemark that distinctly identified properties protected by companies whose marks they displayed. In this insurance industry of old, the mark graphically performed a valuable service by fostering healthy competition among insurers in their pursuit to widen service and improve coverage. So greatly did the firemark enrich the world, that it is credited for triggering the strength, inspiration and growth which has broadened this industry over the years. While insurance has evolved in many ways, it has stayed true to its roots by responding to the influences of commerce, politics and war. No longer is it necessary for property owners to affix a firemark to a building in order to make insurance completely effective. But the firemark remains a symbol of the struggles, triumphs and adversities that have shaped today's industry. It is with the original footprints of assurance in mind that the first protection for those in the food and beverage industry was established. Though the fight is not only against physical fires, it is, indeed, about putting out legal fires, ensuring protection of the best interests and rights of policyholders. In this one niche of the industry, it is Illinois Casualty Company that laid the groundwork for protection and whose footprints are so deeply imbedded in the sands of time and progress. Welcome to Illinois Casualty Company, the dedicated leader of innovative protection in the food and beverage industry - yesterday, today and into the future.
