Farmers Insurance was founded in 1928 by two businessmen, Thomas E. Leavey and John C. Tyler and was expressly created to insure farm automobiles. Through the years Farmers has gone though many changes and has achieved impressive growth with expanded product lines that meet just about every insurance need of a typical family and small business.
The footprint of the two founders is evident throughout the Los Angeles area with philanthropic efforts positively impacting culture with donations to the Disney Music Hall and the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels, various health organizations including The California Medical Center, Northridge Medical Center and the St. Francis Medical Center, education institutions including Loyola Marymount University, Pepperdine University and the University of Southern California.
Tim Shannon, owner of The Shannon Agency has been associated with Farmers since 1977 and is very proud of the long relationship. Tim had relatives that were also involved with Farmers including an Aunt who was employed by the Company in the mid 1940’s and an Uncle who helped start the Truck Insurance Exchange, a member Company of the Farmers Group of Companies in the State of Texas.
