Across Allison’s four decades in the insurance industry, he has taught more than 3,000 hours of continuing insurance education in three states and received the Allen Kennedy Memorial Award —the highest award from the BIG I Independent Insurance Agents of Arkansas, of which he is a Past President. 

“We are super excited to add Randy’s decades of industry leadership to our Sunstar family,” said Andrew “A.B.” Meadors, CEO of Sunstar in Arkansas. “He brings extensive knowledge and understanding along with connections and goodwill across the state. His grandson is even a pitcher for the Razorback baseball team.”

         “Joining the Sunstar Arkansas team is just a great way for me to build out my career,” said Allison. “As the fastest-growing insurance group in the region, Sunstar gives me resources and alliances that are unmatched anywhere else.” 

         A native of McGehee, Arkansas where he began his insurance career in 1983, Allison served on the city council for 14 years and is Past President of the McGehee Chamber of Commerce, Allison moved to Little Rock in 2006.

The Sunstar Arkansas team now has nearly 85 employees working from 11 locations across Arkansas.

Sunstar Insurance Group, based in Memphis, was founded in 2012 by Chairman and CEO David “Casey” Bowlin and has swiftly grown to become the 32nd largest property and casualty insurance agency in the U.S. as ranked by the industry trade magazine, Insurance Journal.
