The Elephant

 

What about the elephant? Why that's Kandu, the symbol of our mission statement, "Team Kandu."

Some years ago, a large brass elephant was purchased by Agency staff and placed in the lobby of the first office on Gateway Loop. The elephant was a curiosity for clients and visiting carrier representatives and soon the question 'what do you call it?' was widely heard. The Agency had a contest to name the elephant, and the name chosen was Kandu. Kandu is the perfect mascot for an organization dedicated to meeting all our clients' insurance needs.

Visit our office in Springfield, and you will see many employees proudly wearing a Kandu necklace or pin, a gold elephant with a diamond on its trunk. That's KPD's way of saying "thank you" for the dedication and loyalty of employees with over ten years service with the Agency. You will see many when you visit.

Oh, and by the way, Kandu is still in the lobby of KPD!
