William F. Solomon
President

Biben Sales was founded in 1958 by Joseph E Biben. In 1975, Gene Biben joined his father and took over the company shortly thereafter. For the next 4+ decades, Gene and his wife Christine added geography and guided the agency to become one of the strongest in the Mid-Atlantic region.

Gene and Christine’s son-in-law Bill Solomon joined the agency in 2012. He, along with now Vice President Chris Transue, have directed the agency since 2016. Bill and Chris have a talented team that encompasses the same core values in which the company was founded back in 1958.
