WHY DO I NEED BAR OR WINE BAR INSURANCE?

Some types of insurance may be a legal requirement. Others may not be compulsory, however not having the right insurance for your business could be a false economy. For example, if you don’t have the necessary protection in place and an incident occurs, you could be liable to pay costs or compensation. It makes sense to match your insurance protection to your requirements to help provide you with peace of mind that you are fully covered.

WHAT INSURANCE COVER DO I NEED FOR A BAR OR WINE BAR?

Accidents can happen in bars, for example a customer may slip on a wet floor or cut themselves on broken glass. Public liability insurance protects you if a member of the public is injured or their property is damaged on your premises. This is a crucial type of cover that we include as standard. Unsurprisingly, bars can be seen as an attractive target for thieves. Contents insurance covers items in your bar from stock, glasses and crockery, through to fixtures and fittings. You’ll be protected against events such as theft, malicious damage, explosion, and water damage.

WHAT OPTIONAL COVER IS AVAILABLE?

Bars now provide more than just food and drink facilities; you may host a variety of different events such as parties and wedding receptions. Whatever your requirements, talk to one of our insurance specialists and we will be able to arrange an appropriate policy for your business. In general, you should consider business interruption cover to protect you against unexpected loss of income. If you own your building, buildings insurance will provide cover for the rebuilding cost of your premises should an incident occur that is covered under your policy.

HOW MUCH DOES BAR OR WINE BAR INSURANCE COST?

The cost of your insurance policy entirely depends on your needs. Our flexible policies can be tailored to fit your requirements and your budget too. For example, multiple options may be available from our panel of insurers – each with different features and prices. We will find you several possibilities to ensure you have all the information you need before deciding on the best option for you.

As a previous customer of smei, they contacted me regarding my premium this year and got me an amazing price. Gentleman I dealt with was brilliant, and not too pushy to take on the insurance.
