Management team / founders

UniVista was founded in Miami by Iván Herrera and Ania Herrera, married Cuban immigrants. Mr. Herrera, who previously worked as an auto salesman and a real-estate agent, noticed in those roles that insurance was required in every transaction. Now, with over 171 and growing franchise agencies, UniVista Insurance is one of the largest retail insurance agencies in Florida. This does not happen by chance, Univista Insurance offers low franchise entry fee, competitive commissions, training in perpetuity, in-house designed software driving efficiency and accountability, and top carriers’ appointments for all lines of insurance products.
