Alliant Insurance Services has expanded its presence in Texas by acquiring Texas Insurance Agency in Laredo and McAfee Insurance Agency in Mabank. These acquisitions enhance Alliant's capabilities in managing
cross-border transportation risks, particularly in South Texas. The company has also strengthened its regional expertise by hiring Nader Dabboussi and Jordan Lewis, who bring specialized knowledge in cross-border public transportation and trucking insurance solutions.
