Company History

Goodville Mutual was founded in 1926 by a small group of Mennonite men who were aware of the growing need for automobile insurance in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. They created a company on the principle of bearing one another's burdens. Although this vision reflected the Anabaptist beliefs of service and mutual aid, it was agreed that the company would serve the wider community.

Since 1926, Goodville Mutual has enjoyed growth and stability and has expanded to include coverage for homes, small businesses, farms and churches in eight states. With strong support from professional independent agents who have been the cornerstone of our success, Goodville Mutual currently has annual revenues exceeding $182 million with assets exceeding $405 million.

Goodville Mutual is rated A VIII (Excellent) by A.M. Best.
