Boxwood Insurance has grown from two employees to more than twenty since opening in 2021, and its leaders credit a people-focused approach to customer service and workplace culture for the firm's growth during its first five years. The Franklin-based agency offers insurance coverage for homes, vehicles, valuable possessions, farms and more. It also provides employee benefits for businesses, including health, dental and disability insurance.
Patrick and Blake say they have held closely to their original vision despite significant changes across the insurance industry. "There have been a lot of mergers and acquisitions in our industry," Blake said. Boxwood has chosen a different path, remaining locally owned and independent so that decisions are made close to home and client relationships stay at the center of the business.
Blake said the agency has seen continued demand for face-to-face service. Patrick said he has also been surprised by the community's support for small businesses. "What has surprised me is the amount of support this community has for small businesses and entrepreneurs," Patrick said.
Patrick, who also serves as a Franklin City Alderman, knows how important life outside the office is and the balancing of work and personal lives is something impacting not just their clients but says an emphasis on priorities and flexibility also extends to Boxwood's employees.
In 2025, Boxwood was named a Best Practices Agency by the Independent Insurance Agents & Brokers of America and Reagan Consulting. The agency also ranked No. 912 on the 2026 Inc. 5000 list of the nation's fastest-growing privately held companies. Boxwood ranked No. 20 among the 104 Tennessee companies included on the list.
"Being included in this list is a real honor and a reflection of the hard work our entire team puts in every day," Patrick said. "This recognition validates the strategic investments we've made in our people, our processes, and our clients' experience. As we look ahead, this milestone fuels our commitment to remaining the kind of agency our clients and employees are proud to be part of. We want to keep our values along with our growth," Blake said. "We want to double down on our people and our mission."
