Mike Vickers has a strong background in business ownership. Growing up, his family owned a business in Panama City Beach for over 60 years. He was able to learn and grow with that business his entire life. Mike had the opportunity to learn about spray foam and he fell in love with the results it can bring to your home. Mike knew there was a need in Florida and decided it was time to move his family back here to start his own company. This was the start of Insulation Panama City.

When the decision was made to start Insulation Panama City, Nichole retired from retail to help Mike run the company.
