Cotton States Insurance was an auto, home and life insurance company that offered its insurance products in the Southeastern United States through its two main insurance brokerages. Cotton States was merged with Country Financial at the end of 2012 following a carefully planned 7 year transition period. At the moment Country Financial has all but phased out the Cotton States brand and only offers insurance under its own brand. Former Cotton States customers are still served by Country agents and support professionals, and these customers now can benefit from the large number of coverage options and discounts that Country has to offer. The merger did not change any of the policies that are still held by former Cotton States customers.
