Grocery Store Insurance in Apopka, Mount Dora and Throughout Florida

All businesses are vulnerable to accidents, property damage, theft, lawsuits and numerous other risks. Someone might get hurt in your grocery store and sue you. A break-in, theft or vandalism incident might occur. Fires, severe weather and other hazards could damage the store and hamper operations.

In these and numerous other scenarios, the right business insurance can benefit the business. It is designed to help you cover the costs of accidents, property damage and other losses without a huge financial blow to your income. The right coverage can help you keep your business financially sound and protect its long-term viability.

To get proper grocery store insurance, you will need several different types of commercial insurance. Some of these are common to most businesses, while others are more specialized to grocery stores:

• Property Coverage: If something damages physical property – such as your building or possessions - then this coverage can help you repair or replace them.
• Business Interruption Coverage: This helps you pay the bills if you must temporarily close after a damaging accident.
• General Liability Coverage: This covers the business in case it causes property damage or bodily injuries to another party, such as a client or vendor.
• Commercial Auto Insurance: When the company owns vehicles, this coverage will provide the requisite physical damage, liability and other benefits to help the company afford the costs of wrecks or other vehicle hazards.
• Workers Compensation Insurance: If an employee gets hurt on the job, they are often eligible for workers compensation coverage. It will provide them supplementary income during their recovery.
• Equipment Breakdown Insurance: If an unexpected event causes essential business equipment (like your refrigeration systems) to fail, then this coverage helps you pay for repairs.
• Food Spoilage Insurance: Following a hazardous event, food that you have stocked in your store might go bad, which could cause a loss of income. This coverage helps you replace these items.
• Liquor Liability Coverage: Grocery stores that sell liquor or spirits need this coverage. It protects the business if it sells alcohol to someone who proceeds to hurt another person, and that third party sues the store.
• Druggist Liability Insurance: Stores that have pharmacies within might need this coverage. It applies to the harm clients of the pharmacy might sustain.

There are a few other more customized benefits that you might need, such as:

• Employment Practices Liability Insurance (EPLI)
• Commercial Umbrella Liability Insurance
• Cyber Liability Insurance
• Surety Bonds
• Products Liability Insurance
• Advertising Injury/Personal Injury Liability Coverage

Depending on your store’s size and liabilities, you might qualify for a business owners policy (BOP). A BOP is a package of commercial insurance options that are designed to protect small businesses with tailored benefits and pricing. Policies commonly include general liability, business interruption and property insurance, though you can further customize your BOP to better protect your store.
