“Laser focusing our team’s efforts on serving our clients while managing and continually improving our organization is front and center to our business philosophy at Unipak. Knowing that risk is a part of our everyday operations, yet isn’t our strong suit, only added to our concern that there may be pieces to the larger puzzle of insurance coverage, risk and premium costs that we were missing. Having printing industry experts from GKG/PGCA as our business partners has truly educated us and significantly improved our position in all things insurance related. In turn, this has enabled us to increase focus on the things that will drive meaningful impact to our team and organization. ”

“As Mines Press has grown and evolved over the years our operations have become much more complex which requires a high level of risk management expertise. And while insurance price is always a consideration, having the appropriate coverage that fits our needs and will respond in the event of a loss is far more important to the corporation than it has ever been. The experts at GKG/PCGA have taken the time to thoroughly understand our business’s, modify our insurance programs to fill in any gaps and significantly mitigate the exposures that were keeping us up at night. ”

“When I needed help with my healthcare program, GKG/PGCA was there to support me as a member. So, I reached out to them to see if they could help me with my Cyber Insurance coverage too and they were able to get me better coverage and reduce the previous cost by 25% with better service. I appreciate having the extra support and printing insurance expertise to guide me, while I build my business.”
