CHARLOTTE, N.C. — While the country’s response to the Coronavirus has caused many business operations to pause, Brightway Insurance remains committed to customers and to people who want to build their own business with the holistic support Brightway offers.

“I entered the industry as an Agent but always wanted to be able to offer a variety of product and brand options to my customers,” said Walker, who is licensed to sell insurance in North Carolina and South Carolina. “Brightway's franchise opportunity came across my path, and it was the perfect opportunity that allows me to leverage my experience to offer expert counsel and more choice of insurance brands to my community.”
