Ben Hibberts

I opened my State Farm agency in 2019, after joining the company in 2014 and learning the business from the ground up. Now I’m proud to be here serving the people of Forest City, NC and the surrounding communities—including Gastonia, Shelby, Asheville, and the greater Charlotte area. My agency handles homeowners and renters insurance, auto insurance, life insurance, business insurance and more.

Working as a State Farm agent, I’ve come to learn that the most satisfying part of this business is being able to form so many long-lasting relationships over the years. My team and I love sitting down with folks and learning everything we can about their unique situations. Every person, every home, every family is different—and we strive to adapt your coverage so that it fits you just right. We’re dependable and understanding, and we have a passion for helping our customers manage their risks, plan for a successful future, and protect the people and things they cherish most.

I’m a native North Carolinian, and I’m married with two young sons. In my free time, I love taking the boys to their tee-ball and baseball games, playing golf, traveling, teaching, working in support of programs at our church, and spending quality time with my family. I also enjoy finding ways to make a positive impact in the community when the opportunities are there—and my agency is a proud sponsor of Blue Ridge Hope in Rutherfordton. I find it so fulfilling to support a group that makes a real difference in the lives of real people.

My team and I are always eager to help with relocations to the beautiful Rutherford County area, and we’d love a chance to help you get settled and comfortable. We always have time to answer your questions or help with a claim, and we’re always ready to assist you with home, renters, auto, life, or business insurance, and more.

Please call or stop by our office for a quote. I am looking forward to meeting you this summer.
