Randy is the owner/Principal of Randy Reichardt Insurance Agency, founded in 1994 as an Independent Insurance Agency serving Batesville, Arkansas, and the surrounding areas. Previous to opening the agency, Randy obtained his licenses in property, casualty, life, health, surety and marine insurances in 1993 and worked for one year with the Independence County Farm Bureau. He also received his "Fellow" designation from the Life Underwriter Training Council in 1996. From the beginning, Randy knew that he wanted to provide his clients with both the best products and best service available in the business. His focus and philosophy of treating others fairly and with respect and striving to be a trusted insurance advisor to his customers has kept the Randy Reichardt Insurance Agency continually growing for 23 years and counting.

He is a past Reserve Sergeant Deputy of the Independence County Sheriff's Department, where he was licensed/received training in: Basic Patrol Rifle2012, Taser Conducted Electrical Weapons, and Active Shooter training 2013. His involvement in law enforcement and concern for the community was part of the motivation for helping to form, and becoming a charter member of the Law Enforcement Community Relations Team (LECRT). This organization was formed to improve awareness of the various operations of the law enforcement agencies in Independence County, promote the safety of residents with educational programs/events, and to assist in providing resources needed to protect and serve our city/county. Randy currently participates in and teaches "ALICE" training to local businesses, manufacturing, schools, and others concerned with having an Active Shooter response plan. In 2015, Randy was commissioned with the Batesville Police Department as a Reserve Officer. When Randy isn't wearing his insurance hat, uniform/BDU's, or otherwise volunteering in his community, he can be found thoroughly enjoying family life with his wife, Michelle; daughter, Bailey and fur-kid Abby. At home Randy is hailed as grilling guru, spaghetti chef extraordinaire, fixer of broken things, and all around superman.
