About Us

Our Mission

To champion the well-being and success of the communities we serve through partnerships, innovation, and care.

In September of 1984, we opened our doors to provide a client-first approach to insurance.

Since then, we have continued to grow; By partnering with the top insurance companies in Ontario, we are strongly equipped to provide full spectrum personal and commercial insurance solutions for the people of Thunder Bay and the surrounding area. 

When my father started Jones & Associates Insurance in 1984, he pledged that this company would always devote itself to being a client-first organization; Doing right by clients by advocating on their behalf. 

To this day, we remain dedicated to providing our clients with superior products, professional service, and the hand of friendship when needed. "We’re with you ...all the way” is more than just a slogan — It’s a promise to our clients. 

As leaders in our industry, we will continue along this path into the future, always seeking to improve who and what we are and what value we bring to our clients.

Sincerely,

Jeff M. Jones, CAIB | President
