Grocery Shop Insurance

Your produce is central to the running of your business so insuring it against unexpected events and accidents is imperative.

Our flexible approach to tailor-made grocery insurance policies and our ability to cater for “non-standard” risks means that we may still be able to provide a policy to cover your business needs even if your particular circumstances may not be looked on favourably by some insurers.

Business insurance is important no matter what type of grocery store you own; be it a large mini-market or a small village store, as it protects your business against some of the risks and issues you face. Greengrocers, like Cartmell’s Greengrocers in Padiham, Lancashire (picture above), are often at the heart of the high street.

• Our insurers may be able to offer cover for:
• Premises with flat roofs.
• Risks with high sums insured.
• New start-up businesses.
• Proposals that have had large claims (including fire or flood).

Please note we are unable to offer quotations to businesses located in Northern Ireland.

Why Insurance is Important for Grocers

Much like any other business, you may need to take out employers liability insurance to protect you, should your employees be injured whilst working. Additionally to this, you may require public liability cover should something happen to your customers when they visit your store.
