General liability coverage

Risk Factors

A restaurant needs general liability insurance to cover bodily injury or property damage claims that result from accidents, like slips and falls.

Solution

General liability insurance covers the damages caused by these accidents. It also covers product liability which protects your restaurant from claims arising from food-borne illnesses.

Liquor liability coverage

Risk Factors

You may be held liable if you caused or contributed to someone’s intoxication through the sale or service of liquor.

Solution

If your restaurant sells or serves alcoholic beverages, you’ll need to purchase liquor liability insurance to cover your business from any lawsuits filed against your business.

Business income coverage

Risk Factors

If a fire or another peril damages property at your restaurant and your business is forced to shut down, you could suffer a significant income loss.

Solution

To protect your business, you can avoid such events by purchasing a business income coverage.

Spoilage coverage

Risk Factors

Food stored in refrigerators or freezers may spoil if cooling equipment breaks down or shuts off due to a power outage.

Solution

You can insure your restaurant against costly spoilage losses by purchasing spoilage coverage.

Employee theft coverage

Risk Factors

Restaurant employees may steal their employers' food, cash, and other property.

Solution

Theft by employees is an excluded peril under a typical property policy. However, you’ll need to buy employee theft coverage to protect your business.
