Highstreet Insurance Partners is making various strides in business augmentation, with a wave of acquisitions across multiple regions. This includes the acquisition of Georgia-based Winder Insurance Center, Missouri’s Siebert Agency, the assets of Texas based Collum Insurance Group, upstate New York based H.G. Ellis Agency, and Florida-based Flagler Insurance, among others. These moves expand their service scope and their presence in Central Region. Moreover, a new partnership with Wingert Insurance Agency seeks to enhance their benefits expertise. On the retail front, changes are afoot with
WHSmith, as it sells its high street business to Modella Capital. Similarly, noteworthy high street brands like Topshop might see a revival as Asos sells its stake. Famed retailer Søstrene Grene has also joined the fray hoping to revive the UK high street. Conversely, decline in high street sales has caused some businesses, such as a Brighton based art gallery, to shut their doors. However, some propose that online retail could help in reviving the high street. Despite various closures, new ventures are on the horizon, like IKEA opening its first high street restaurant, and new store openings in Abbotsford's Highstreet Shopping Centre. The high street is bracing for changes, whether it be in the insurance sector or the retail sector.
