Advertorial: Boy, what a ride it’s been!

Never in our wildest dreams did we expect the community to be so supportive. Since March this year Triarc, South Africa’s very first LGBTI insurance provider, has been on a mad roller coaster supporting fabulous events and building brand awareness like crazy!

We have been involved with more than 125 LGBTI initiatives in some form or another, employed a whole team of LGBTI staff and actively searched for and used LGBTI service providers wherever possible.

We are also very proud of the roll we played in supporting the team that brought Mr Gay World 2015 to South Africa, and especially proud of one of our founders talking via video at the big event in Rome just before the announcement. We secretly believe that he ultimately tipped the scales in South Africa’s favor… (Wink wink)

We have grown our Facebook fans from zero to over 10,000, posted over 3500 photos on social media platforms and had to establish a dedicated team just to manage all the comments, questions and suggestions.

And we still have at least 15 more planned events before the end of the year!

And the reason for all this activity?

We want every LGBTI person to know that they will not get a better product at a better price with better after sales service anywhere in the country!

The products we are launching are the culmination of about five years of hard work!

And why do this? Because we are proudly gay and proudly South African, our dream is to establish a business that caters specifically for the LGBTI community in SA and to establish a reputation for excellence with our products and services.

There is absolutely nothing like this in the insurance market, and we see this as an awesome opportunity to show South Africa what the LGBTI community is capable of!

But why should you care?

Our first priority is to make sure that you get the best value for money while life is good, that you are looked after when you need our help and having complete peace of mind in between.

We have a full suite of Life Insurance products to choose from or to combine depending on your needs.

Whether you need Death cover to look after loved ones when you are no longer around, Disability and Functional impairment cover if you are unable to work or function normally, Critical illness cover for when you get a dread disease, or Income protection to cover monthly bills if you are unable to generate an income, we have something fabulous specially for you!

But, if you are one of the lucky ones that never have to claim due to an injury or disease then guess what, you still benefit because of events that we sponsor, charities that we support, competitions or lucky draws you may have entered and won, or the part we played in changing the perceptions of the world in not just tolerating the LGBTI community but respecting it too.
