Akers & Arney Breaks Ground On New Office Complex

Branson, MO — Akers & Arney Insurance Associates recently broke ground on a new office building located at 201 Buccaneer Blvd., just off U.S. Highway 65 and Bee Creek Road.

Akers & Arney president and CEO David Arney said the new 15,000-square foot office complex, which is expected to be completed in late fall of 2006, was designed to provide clients with easy access and ample parking.

The company is currently located at 201 E. Main St. adjacent to the new $420 million Branson Landing development.

“This company has been a part of the historic downtown Branson business community for 54 years,” Arney said. “We think this new location next to the Branson Jr. High School will be much more convenient for both our clients and our staff,” Arney said.

The new office complex will also become the home of Tom Boyce Excavating, Elite Landscaping and Employer Advantage, a human resources company based in Joplin. Tom Boyce Excavating and Akers & Arney have formed A & B Property L.L.C. to construct the building. The general contractor is Joe Williams Construction Company; the designer is Butler Architects − both of Branson. A Grand Opening date will be announced later this year, Arney said.

Akers & Arney Insurance Associates is a full service independent insurance agency offering insurance and risk solutions for businesses and families including health insurance, home, auto and commercial products.

Agency partners are Edd Akers, David Arney, and John Akers. All three partners are natives of the Branson area and graduates of Branson High School.
