Ori-gen was founded by The J. Morey Company, Inc. Insurance Agents & Brokers and Alliance 360° Insurance Solutions – two like-minded companies that joined together to achieve the common goal of sustaining legacy businesses, by underscoring where they came from in order to create a new future. Ori-gen advances diverse communities by providing tools and resources to businesses looking to continue their legacies for future generations. The company currently consists of ten locations throughout California and Hawaii, and holds insurance licenses in all 50 states. Ori-gen offers over 40 direct carrier appointments across all lines of insurance among its 15 legacy agency partners to date.

With 126,000 insurance brokers in the nation, and over 3,500 are diverse-owned, Ori-gen is proud to be a diverse group of ethnicities, genders, races and ages, serving a variety of clients ranging from small minority-owned businesses to large municipalities. As a Minority Business Enterprise (MBE), Ori-gen embraces its heritage and DE&I initiatives and assists its clients with MBE, WBE, and DBE certifications that are now recognized at the federal and Fortune 500 levels. More recently, Ori-gen has grown beyond property & casualty and employee benefits, to now include retirement services and consulting services.

Ori-gen considers itself not in the Insurance business, but in the business of DE&I. Beyond recruiting diverse talent by percentage margins, it is of equal importance to perpetuate the impacts that have already been made by Origen legacy partners such as Noguchi & Associates, Alliance 360° Insurance Solutions, The J. Morey Company, and others.

As one of the largest minority-owned independent insurance agencies in the country, it is the organization’s collective goal to dismantle systemic barriers and to serve underserved and underutilized communities. Ori-gen is a company that has diversity embedded into the fabric of the organization and was founded on three pillars: diversity, legacy, and community. Rooted in building and sustaining legacy businesses while helping diverse communities flourish, the company places full focus on diversity, inclusion, and equity not only internally but also when selecting partners to collaborate with.

Together, Ori-gen and its partners uplift each other and invest in a new generation of insurance professionals that looks drastically different from its predecessors.
