Prosura strikes second deal in Yorkshire, adding Donald Schofield
Prosura has bought commercial broker Donald Schofield, based in Pontefract – its second purchase since starting to trade at the start of 2023.
Wakefield-based Prosura snapped up First Stop Insurance Brokers in Sheffield in October 2023.
Prosura CEO Jon Newall told Insurance Age earlier this year the firm had hit £3m of gross written premium since it was set up.
According to the business, with the latest deal it is on track to reach £6m GWP by the end of 2024.
The Donald Schofield (Pontefract) brand is being kept, with all the clients and assets being integrated into the Prosura Group, the buyer confirmed.
