New insurance broking practice delivers two major deals
Following the launch of Lockton’s CCA Food, Agriculture & Beverage insurance broking practice in 2024, we’ve won two major requests for proposals (RFPs):
- Lacthosa is a Honduran producer of food and beverage products, focusing on dairy and fruit juices. Apart from Honduras, the company operates in El Salvador, Guatemala, the US, Dominican Republic, and Grand Cayman.
- Dinant also Honduras based, is an agribusiness and consumer products manufacturer employing nearly 8,700 people while supporting over 20,000 contractors, vendors, and suppliers.
Our specialised focus on the food, agriculture, and beverage industry was a decisive factor in winning these accounts. This has enabled us to offer a wide range of expertise such as engineering services, natural catastrophe modelling, and global insurance market access, otherwise not offered in these underserved markets.

On March 4 and 13 Lockton’s Latin America and Caribbean Insurance Services (LACIS) team has volunteered with the Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC) in Downtown Miami. RMHC is a non-profit organisation aiming to create, find, and support programmes that directly improve the health and well-being of children. We prepared and served meals for more than 60 residents of a care home that hosts kids undergoing cancer treatment and their family members, as well as, the staff. This experience offered us an opportunity to support families facing difficult circumstances with the comfort of a home-cooked meal. It also emphasised the importance of community service, strengthening our commitment to teamwork and shared purpose. We extend our sincere thanks to RMHC for the vital work they do and look forward to future opportunities to contribute.
