Jacobson, Goldfarb & Scott, Inc. (JGS Insurance) is celebrating its 100-year milestone this month.  JGS was established in 1919 as a privately-owned independent insurance agency and real estate firm by Isadore “Izzy” Jacobson and Morris Goldfarb from Perth Amboy. Today, as a provider of business and personal insurance, JGS Insurance is one of the largest independently owned agencies in New Jersey and is licensed in all 50 states. The two principal owners, Kenneth Hager and Vincent Hager, represent in excess of 40 carriers both national and regional. The company is based in Bell Works and operates 23,500 square feet of space with offices in Florida, Maryland and Connecticut.

The National Association of Professional Insurance Agents (PIA) has named Selective Insurance the recipient of its 2019 Company Award of Excellence.
