In the 1840s, Frederick, Maryland was among the 100 largest cities in America and considered cutting edge in many ways. On the corner of South Market and All Saints Streets, the B&O Railroad dispatched passengers from then-faraway places like Pittsburgh and New York City. Other travelers journeyed westward by wagon on the nation’s first paved highway that cut through the city on Patrick Street. Nestled in the hustle and bustle of this burgeoning town was Frederick Mutual Insurance Company, established in 1843. During the 19th and 20th Centuries, the Company provided fire insurance protection to local Maryland homeowners and business owners. In the 21st Century, Frederick Mutual evolved and innovated to become a regional insurance carrier dedicated to protecting businesses in the greater Mid-Atlantic and Southeast regions of the United States of America. Through the introduction of innovative products and technologies, Frederick Mutual provides comprehensive business insurance for contractors, retailers, small businesses, property owners, wholesalers, and more!
