How can candle store insurance help your business?
Candle store insurance can help your business to:
- Protect your store, inventory and equipment. Property insurance could help cover your candles, wax, fragrance oils, displays, shelving, point-of-sale systems and other business property if it’s damaged by a covered event.
- Handle liability claims. Liability insurance could help protect you if a customer is injured at your candle store or if your business accidentally damages someone else’s property.
- Deal with product liability issues. If a candle, wax melt or other product you sell is alleged to have caused bodily injury or property damage, product liability coverage may help with the costs of claims against you.
- Sell at craft fairs, craft shows or pop-ups. Some event organizers require proof of insurance before allowing vendors to participate.
- Drive for business. If your business uses cars, trucks, vans, trailers or other vehicles to transport inventory, deliver products or attend vendor events, commercial auto insurance could help protect your business driving.

Does ERGO NEXT have General Liability insurance coverage for candle stores?
Yes. ERGO NEXT has general liability insurance, commercial property insurance, workers' compensation insurance and commercial auto insurance for eligible candle stores.
Is business insurance required to sell candles at craft fairs or farmers markets?
Many craft fairs, farmers markets, holiday markets, pop-ups and other vendor events require sellers to carry liability insurance or other types of business insurance to participate. Event organizers often ask for a certificate of insurance (COI) as proof of the details of your insurance coverage.
Does candle store insurance cover handmade candles?
Candle shop insurance may cover handmade candles. Your business may need coverage for both your retail operations and the products that you manufacture.
For example, product liability insurance could help protect your business if a customer claims that a handmade candle you sold them caused an injury or property damage. Product liability coverage is included in an ERGO NEXT general liability policy, which can also cover things like if a customer asks you to pay for their designer shoes that were ruined by spilled hot wax in your shop.
The coverage your business needs depends on how your business operates and the policies and limits that you choose.
