You are constantly exposed to events that could lead to serious claims.

RISK - when your risk is properly reviewed, your insurance can be tailored to the company or individual needs. This is why it is worth seeking a specialist's advice. We can help you choose and adjust your insurance requirements to suit your needs, protecting you and your company.

What do you need for best protection?

Professional Insurance Agents Ltd recommend three basic liability insurances for companies running small food businesses:

Public Liability

This insurance covers you for the cost of a claim made by a client or a member of the public that has suffered injury or property damage as a result of your business or a product it has supplied.

Employers Liability

This is a legal requirement and brings substantial fines if you do not have a policy in place. (If you employ anyone even on a part time basis).

Product Liability

This is a type of commercial cover designed to protect against claims of injury or damage resulting from a product sold by your business.

PIA can offer all three of these insurances as well as Business Interruption (insurance against loss of income as a result of discontinuation of activity) and Property Insurance (building). You may wish to also consider additional insurance, such as Business Contents Insurance.

Please note that it’s important to review your policy wordings to see exactly what is and what isn’t covered.
