Valdosta – The Valdosta Chamber hosted a ribbon cutting for Country Financial – Shannon Hauser Agency at 3338 Country Club Road Suite L3.

Country Financial - Shannon Hauser Agency, LLC officially opened its doors on February 1, 2023. Formerly serviced by Ford Bowen Insurance-Country Financial, Shannon and her team seized the opportunity to take over the agency after Ford's relocation to Kansas City, Missouri.

Led by Shannon Hauser, the agency's team includes Victoria Ray and Nichele Harris, both Associate Agents dedicated to delivering exceptional client relations and daily service work. Country Financial - Shannon Hauser Agency, LLC offers a comprehensive range of insurance products, including home, auto, farm, renters, commercial, life, and retirement coverage.

Beyond serving as a reliable insurance provider, Country Financial - Shannon Hauser Agency, LLC is committed to being an active community partner. They actively participate in events that give back and support the vibrant Azalea City community.

Drawing on her background as a former Civics and Economics Teacher, Shannon Hauser is personally passionate about Financial Literacy. She aspires to collaborate with fellow business owners and entrepreneurs to inspire and educate the next generation on all financial matters that impact the present and future.

With a legacy of over 90 years in the industry, Country Financial has a longstanding commitment to safeguarding individuals and their families, helping them achieve financial security. From local insurance representatives to the underwriters at the home office, the entire Country Financial team works together to assist clients in attaining financial freedom.

"We're more than an insurance company," said Hauser. "Clients not only trust us to protect their homes, cars, farms, businesses, and lives but also rely on us for assistance with planning for the future, including investing, retirement, and financial planning."

Hauser attributes her ownership and operation of Country Financial to her involvement with the Valdosta Chamber. Her journey began in 2021 as an Ambassador and expanded when she joined the Valdosta Networking Professionals, a Chamber-sponsored leads group. Through this network, she reconnected with Ford Bowen, and their collaboration over the years, including participation in numerous chamber events, VSU events, job fairs, and The Rotary Club, paved the way for a seamless transition from Ford Bowen Insurance to The Shannon Hauser Agency, LLC. The Valdosta-Lowndes Chamber provided the platform and resources for professionals to network, innovate, and contribute to the beloved community we all share.
