Richard “Gordy” Bunch, founder, president,

and CEO of The Woodlands Financial

Group, has received his third nomination as

Gulf Coast Entrepreneur of the Year in the

2015 search for a national EOY recipient.

The Entrepreneur of the Year program is

designed by Ernst & Young to give recognition

and visibility to entrepreneurial leadership

by honoring a leader of a public or private

company who is responsible for the financial

performance and culture of a company.

Regional award winners will be inducted into

the Entrepreneur of the Year Hall of Fame

and become eligible for the national awards.

Bunch launched TWFG with $10,000 in

2001 in The Woodlands. Today, TWFG

is a multi-faceted $337 million business

offering property and casualty insurance,

personal lines, finance, and agency software

technology.

TWFG has become a national leader in its

industry, being ranked as number eight in

Property and Casualty lines out of 38,000

independent agencies and number one in

Texas for Personal Lines insurance (Home and

Auto). There are more than 300 TWFG offices

in 21 states with affiliated agencies expanding

representation into 38 states. Bunch says

he covers close to

250,000 clients in

49 states through the

TWFG network. More

than 40 of his agents

are members of the TWFG Million-Dollar

Producers Club. They will join more than

200 TWFG branch managers here in

May for their annual convention at The

Woodlands Waterway Marriott Hotel and

Convention Center.

Bunch also serves on The Woodlands

Township Board of Directors where

he was elected its treasurer. He also

serves his community as chairman of

The Woodlands Convention and Visitors

Bureau which generates vital sales and

hotel taxes to The Woodlands Township.

His business acumen has served to assist

the board in cutting property tax rates for

three consecutive years while augmenting

recreational and resident services.
