History
Alltrust History
Alltrust was Founded
Alltrust was founded on the premise that people and customer service should be the driving focus of any successful employee benefits program. So it started with two employees, a one-desk office and nothing more than a thermal fax machine in downtown Tarpon Springs, Florida.
Joe Part, Alltrust founder
Joe founded Alltrust in 1994 with an ‘off the wall’ idea to provide unparalleled value and create a company focus entirely on employee benefits. Coming from a family of physicians and previously working for a large regional insurance agency; he understood that healthcare is not just an insurance product. It is a complex, but essential influence in our day to day lives, a support system that, when used properly, can and should give people peace of mind in their most difficult and darkest times. As a result, he believed healthcare and health consumers should be given the same intimacy and support that a physician would have with a patient. And, Alltrust Insurance was born.
Karen Brayboy, Alltrust co-founder
Karen founded Alltrust with Joe Part in 1994; her background includes over 20 years in the financial consulting industry. As a previous owner of a financial consulting business, Karen has extended her knowledge of financial products; corporate finance, taxes, and structure; and in-depth knowledge of the public sector. Mrs. Brayboy wore many ‘hats’ and was very instrumental in becoming one of the largest and most successful benefits and human capital firms in Florida.
1999 – 2006
During this time, we continued to establish the Alltrust Insurance brand, focusing on our process and core values. And, in return, our book of business continued to thrive and our team continued to grow.
