ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY







Robinson & Fogle Insurance Group recognizes that it has a responsibility to the environment beyond legal and regulatory requirements. We are committed to reducing our environmental impact and continually improving our environmental performance as an integral part of our business strategy as well as our daily lives. With this environmental initiative, we are able to run our company efficiently which not only benefits the environment, but also lowers our overhead and ultimately allows us to pass on cost savings to our clients. This means we don’t tack on extra agency policy fees that many other agents include in their premiums in order to cover expensive overhead costs.
