Coffee shop insurance

Coffee shop insurance is essential for any business owner to protect against unexpected events that could impact your ability to trade. Insurance for coffee shops can protect you against a number of eventualities to give you peace of mind and security in case something goes wrong.

Serving hot drinks, light bites and providing a relaxing environment for all your customers can leave you exposed to a number of risks that could lead to claims being made against you. With this in mind your coffee shop insurance policy should be comprehensive enough to protect your clients, yourself and suppliers in case something goes wrong.

At Premierline, we can arrange flexible coffee shop insurance covers that can be as simple or comprehensive as you need depending on the scale of your coffee shop. When deciding what insurance and covers you need to protect your business, you should consider the following:

• Public liability – for injured customers or damage to their property.
• Employers’ liability – to protect your employees.
• Buildings cover – to cover for loss or damage to your building or shop.
• Equipment, contents and stock – to reinstate your items and belongings.
• Business interruption – to keep finances running when disaster strikes.
• Money cover – for theft or attempted theft.
• Goods in transit – to cover for loss or damage to stock when in transit, loading or unloading.
• Business legal expenses – to cover the cost of legal expenses or defend your business against legal action.
