Zignego Agency Insurance has proudly served the Lake Elmo area for 50 years. Our service area includes Woodbury, Stillwater, Bayport, St. Paul, and the Twin Cities Metropolitan Area. We’re dedicated to helping you protect what matters most, whether it’s your home, auto, or business.
In 1957, a young John E. Zignego began his career in insurance with W.A. Lang Agency. Eight years later, he joined Sonnen Insurance Agency in St. Paul, MN, where he earned his first opportunity to become an agent. In 1975, John purchased the agency from George Sonnen, renaming it Sonnen-Zignego Agency Inc. Three years later, with a growing East Metro clientele, he relocated the agency to Lake Elmo.
Over the years, Zignego Agency expanded through strategic acquisitions, including Lake Elmo Bank Agency and Artie Schaefer Insurance out of Stillwater. Most recently, on January 1st, 2024, Zignego Agency Insurance proudly acquired Voosen Company of St. Paul, MN — another family-owned agency committed to building strong, lasting customer relationships. These expansions allow us to serve our clients even better while maintaining the personalized service our community values.
At Zignego Agency, we believe in more than just insurance — we believe in helping our clients feel confident and secure. Whether you’re looking for guidance on coverage or just have questions about your policies, our team is here to help. Contact us today and experience the difference of a locally owned agency that truly cares.
