People Corporation makes acquisition

People Corporation has purchased the group benefits business of Bryan H. Lupe and Associates (BHL) for an undisclosed amount.

With the addition of this company, People has significantly increased its presence in the Winnipeg market.

“We are thrilled to announce our first acquisition in our home market of Winnipeg,” says People Corporation chairman and CEO Laurie Goldberg. “In addition, the opportunity to add a firm to the People Corporation family with the stature in the local market and reputation with clients that BHL has is very exciting for us.”

“I am very pleased that BHL is joining the People Corporation group of companies,” says BHL founder Bryan Lupe. “As I considered options for a transition of ownership, it was very important for me to find a partner that has the same strong focus on creative solutions and client service that is the hallmark of BHL.”

This acquisition represents People’s second transaction this year as part of the company’s acquisition-based growth plan.
