Muller Insurance enjoys a proud history that dates back over a century and now carries through to a third generation of Mullers. Our story began when a 17-year-old John Muller immigrated to Hoboken from Altona, Germany in 1903. John Muller not only wanted to find the American Dream, he wanted to live it. He began to do that just three years later when he started Muller Insurance in 1906.
When he opened his insurance agency at 930 Washington Street (where we are headquartered today), he not only launched a vibrant business that would grow with Hoboken, the surrounding communities and the insurance industry itself. He also created an entity committed to public service and community involvement.
In May 2012, a year before R. John Muller passed away, the entire Muller family was honored for years of dedication to the community when the City of Hoboken renamed the corner at Washington and 10th Streets as John Muller Way.
"That was a special day for us. And everyday I pass that sign, I'm reminded of the what my family built and the lessons that were passed down from my father and grandfather," Roger said. In March 2016, Muller Insurance was further honored to be recognized as the oldest continuously operating business in Hoboken. "That means a lot to everyone in the family and at our company. Although neither Erika nor I ever met my grandfather, we do our best every day to carry on the work he started over 110 years ago."
