Advancing since 1890
Six generations insuring business families
We were founded in Barcelona in 1890 to insure the textile industry. Today, with the sixth generation already active, we support companies in very different sectors with the same determination as those who paved the way.
Timeline
1890
Foundation of the Armengol Agency
In 1890, in the prosperous city of Barcelona, the Armengol Agency was founded, an entity dedicated to specialised insurance programmes for the textile sector.
1909
1st and 2nd generational handover
Seven decades under Josep Armengol Palau and his son, during which the company transitioned from textiles to the broader Catalan industrial fabric.
1980
International expansion
The 3rd and 4th generational handover under Amadeu Jori adapted to the emergence of the mass market and the arrival of international brokers.
1991
Union of forces, the 5th generational handover
JORI expands its international presence, opens an office in Madrid and establishes strategic alliances with La Securité Nouvelle and Heath Lambert.
2008
First international broker network
JORI joins as a partner for Spain in a global network of independent brokers and gains correspondents in countries where it has no office. It is the first organised international reach of the company and the foundation of the networks it works with today.

The current generation takes over
The sixth generation of the family takes over and maintains the model: own team, own criteria and the same entrepreneurial families behind.
