Editor’s note: A previous headline to this story incorrectly stated that Zenith had opened its first office in Fresno last week. It has had a decades-long presence here.

Zenith, a national workers’ compensation specialist and casualty insurer, opened a new office in Fresno recently, marking “an important milestone in the company’s continued growth and commitment to serving the local community,” according to a news release.

The office, located at 8405 N. Fresno St., was unveiled Feb. 10 with a ribbon-cutting ceremony. The space is designed as a collaborative hub and will support 138 employees while serving as a central meeting place for agency partners, customers and association leaders.

Christina Shapazian, senior vice president and regional officer, said the new location reflects the company’s commitment to strengthening relationships and deepening its engagement across the region.

Zenith is headquartered in Woodland Hills and employs up to 5,000 people nationwide, according to the company’s LinkedIn page.

The company, a leader in providing property and casualty insurance for California’s agriculture industry, combines industry expertise with a service-focused approach for clients, according to the company’s website.
