SEATTLE - illiNews -- Grange Insurance Association (GIA), a mutual insurance provider serving families, farms, and businesses across the Western United States for more than 130 years, announced today that it will rebrand as Granwest Insurance, effective July 1, 2026.

The name Granwest reflects this heritage and forward vision:
"Our transition to Granwest Insurance honors our deep roots while positioning us for the future," said Steven W. Stogner, President & CEO. "While our name is changing, our commitment to protecting what matters most for our customers and communities across the West remains the same."
