Industry Risks

Unique Risks You Face

Retail businesses operate on thin margins and face daily risks that can quickly threaten their viability without proper insurance coverage.

Customer Injuries

Slip-and-fall accidents on your sales floor, in aisles, or in parking lots are among the most common retail liability claims.

Inventory Theft & Shrinkage

Shoplifting, employee theft, and organized retail crime result in significant inventory losses for retailers every year.

Fire & Weather Damage

Fire, storms, and water damage can destroy your inventory, fixtures, and building — and force a prolonged closure.

Business Interruption

A covered loss that closes your store can cut off revenue while rent, payroll, and other expenses continue.

Product Liability

If a product you sell causes injury or damage, you can be named in a liability claim even if you did not manufacture it.
