Company History

Assurance Melanson has been a proud family-owned business for over 75 years. Mr. Auguste Melanson began operating the business out of his general store in the early 1930's. The practice started doing business with Douglas Rogers Ltd in Amherst, Nova Scotia, and continued that business relationship until approximately 1945. Joseph Melanson ran the business until 1947, at which time Wilfred Melanson took over. From then on, the company was known as W.A. Melanson until 1974. The following year, Wilfred's wife Geraldine (who also worked at the general store), took an interest in the insurance portion of the operation and took the liberty of moving the business into a larger office space right next door. It was to operate as Assurance G. Melanson Ltee until 1985 under Geraldine's direction.













Community Involvement

Assurance G. Melanson (2007) Ltee strives to provide our clients, and our local communities in general, with the highest level of service, support and protection as possible. We hope our community involvement and charity donations will contribute to helping our young athletes, our citizens and our community to grow stronger and advance forward.
