Company Overview

ERI is the culmination of an idea the founders have been developing since 2002, when they were having difficulty obtaining ethanol plant insurance coverage at a reasonable rate. Because the insurance industry as a whole just didn’t seem to understand ethanol production, ERI President Bruce Pearson reasoned, “Why not provide insurance tailored specifically for the ethanol industry?” His idea blossomed into the three main product lines ERI supports today, designed to give your ethanol plant a competitive advantage. Bruce Pearson founded the Ethanol Risk Management Safety Group (ERMSG) in 2003 to meet the need for affordable insurance in the ethanol industry. Customized to drive down costs, provide superior coverage and reward outstanding performance, ERMSG developed a history of offering exceptional benefits to its customers.

The company was reorganized in 2007 to form ERI Solutions as a means of encompassing additional services within one business entity, including Risk Management Consulting, Captive Insurance Management and a Safety and Health Program.
