As a new member of Choose Marshall Chamber, the Chad Heeter State Farm Agency is eager to contribute to the local business community. “The support and networking opportunities offered by the Chamber are invaluable.  We believe in the importance of supporting local businesses and contributing to the community’s overall success.”

With a customer-first approach, the agency offers a wide range of products including auto, home, life, health and small business insurance.  Heeter is excited to bring another agency to downtown Marshall. “We are honored to be part of such a welcoming and vibrant community.” He added, “We look forward to serving and building strong relationships with residents and businesses to help Marshall thrive.”
