Drogheda & District Chamber is delighted to unveil an exciting new partnership with local business LHK Group, an award winning family-owned business steeped in a rich legacy dating back to 1938. Led by Colm Kelleher, LHK Group remains one of the few independently owned insurance and financial planning brokers in the Irish market and is a proud member of the Family Business Network and the Guaranteed Irish community.
In an environment where many competing brokers have been acquired by private equity backed groups, where the motive of the acquirer is often to repackage the acquired business and resell, LHK Group has been busy making its own acquisitions over the past number of years. Some international names are amongst its almost 10,000 clients, however, the core client of the insurance business is like minded, Irish owned indigenous retail, SME and corporate businesses across numerous industry sectors. According to Colm Kelleher, Managing Director of LHK Group, “Risk and Insurance is evolving at a rapid pace with many developments, such as cyber-crime, inflation and climate change significantly altering how individuals and businesses consider and purchase insurance. Evolving market conditions, combined with the reality of a heavily consolidated broker landscape where advice is increasingly commoditised, has increased the demand for our tailor made, personal, local advisory services.”
This strategic collaboration aims to equip Chamber members with invaluable insights and expert insurance guidance, as well as life and pensions advisory services. Leveraging the wealth of experience and expertise within LHK Group, this partnership seeks to empower Chamber members with essential tools to navigate the complexities of the contemporary business landscape effectively.
President of Drogheda & District Chamber, Hubert Murphy, expressed his enthusiasm for the partnership, stating, “Drogheda & District Chamber hosted a highly successful and informative Business Breakfast as part of Enterprise Week at Scholars recently. LHK Group gave those attending a great overview of the present insurance market. These are the networking events that make the chamber what it is – a body that delivers for business, across all sectors – keeping them up to date with new ideas, trends and the knowledge we all need to remain competitive.”
Colm Kelleher is looking forward to a long-term partnership with the Chamber and other local businesses, “We are thrilled to embark on this strategic partnership with Drogheda & District Chamber, further solidifying our commitment to supporting businesses within the community. At LHK Group, we pride ourselves on delivering personalised solutions and expert advice tailored to our clients’ evolving needs. Through this collaboration, we look forward to empowering Chamber members with the tools and insights necessary to thrive in today’s dynamic business landscape.”
This collaboration marks the third Strategic Partnership for Drogheda & District Chamber in recent years, reinforcing its commitment to delivering unparalleled value to its esteemed members.
