OUR STORY

Untitled design (5).png

Rooted in Oregon.
Built on Trust.

Tilikum is a Chinook word meaning friends, family, and the people around you. It captures the spirit of community and shared humanity — and it's the foundation everything we do is built on.
 

Founded in Oregon and deeply woven into this state's fabric, we've spent over 25 years protecting the businesses that make Oregon extraordinary — from family farms in the Willamette Valley to manufacturers in the Portland metro area.
 

We believe insurance should feel personal — not transactional. When you call us, you speak with someone who knows your name, your industry, and the specific risks you face every single day.

CLIENT STORIES

Oregon Businesses Trust Us
"Tilikum completely transformed how I think about business insurance. They took the time to understand our brewery's unique risks — equipment, taproom liability, distribution — and built a policy that actually made sense."
