Occident boosts its presence in Cantabria with the opening of a new office in Laredo

"The insurance company continues its commitment to the agency model by expanding its office network in Spain"

Occident continues to promote its growth strategy by opening a new office in Laredo, thus consolidating its presence in Cantabria. This opening strengthens the company's commitment to proximity and personalised service through its network of mediators, which is key to its business model.

The new branch, located on Calle Marqués de Comillas, 1 (Laredo), will have a team of three professionals, specialising in the personalisation and marketing of a wide range of Occident insurance products, including home, auto, life, savings, health, and more.

“We’re very excited about the opening of this office, which we’ve designed to be a welcoming and accessible space where every resident of Laredo feels they have a team that listens to them and offers clear, personalised solutions to protect everything that matters most to them”, explains the office’s lead agent, Beatriz Caballero.

Commitment to mediation and to the growth of the office network

With this new opening, Occident strengthens its presence in Cantabria, where it already has 13 offices and 182 mediators (agents and brokers). At the national level, the company has a network of more than 1,200 offices and a community of 14,000 mediators (agents and brokers) who play an essential role in the relationship with customers, accompanying them at every stage of their lives and providing a personal and reliable service.  

Jaime Alegría, Regional Director for the Northern Zone of the Occident Agency Channel, notes: "Our growth strategy relies on a business model that firmly supports mediation and proximity with our customers. “The opening of this new office reinforces our commitment to this model and allows us to continue strengthening our presence in Cantabria with a high-quality, personalised, and accessible service”.

The expansion of Occident’s office network is part of its 2025–27 Strategic Plan, through which the company maintains its leadership in territorial presence and plans to continue growing by opening new offices in various parts of the country.
