Slip-and-fall injuries
Damage to a client’s property
Medical payments for someone hurt at your shop
Commercial Property insurance
Protect your gear, goods, business inventory and the building you own for business

Property damage if a defect with your product causes harm

BOP insurance (Business Owner’s Policy)

A BOP can do a lot — and help you save on business insurance. Many small business owners know they need general liability coverage in case they injure someone or damage someone’s property. But only commercial property can cover damage to your property such as vandalism and fire, or the loss of your products and inventory from theft. Combine them both into one policy for more coverage at a special price.
