Don't leave everything to chance; keep yourself protected with an insurance
Whether they come to you for clothing, pet food or auto parts, your customers depend on your store for products and expertise. Make sure you have the protection you need if something goes wrong.
General liability Coverage
If a customer slips and gets hurt while shopping in your boutique or if your employee breaks a customer’s phone while helping them make a purchase, you can be held liable for the damages.
General liability helps to protect your retail business from lawsuits claiming you’re responsible for an injury or property damage. General liability insurance can help cover their medical costs or replace a damaged item.
Commercial property Coverage
Commercial property insurance can help to protect the place where you run your retail business.
It helps cover your business’ inventory and owned or rented equipment including Rolling crates, Shelves, Computers and Cash registers.
Data Breach Coverage
Retail businesses often collect sensitive employee and customer information including Credit card numbers. The loss or theft of that information could leave your store open to lawsuits and damage your reputation.
Data breach coverage helps pay the costs that result when personally identifiable information is lost or stolen, including Notifying impacted individuals, Managing public relations and Good faith advertising.
Employment Practices liability Coverage
Retail businesses may face claims from current or past employees over issues such as Harassment, Wrongful termination, Wrongful failure to promote and many more.
If an employee sues you for discrimination, your retail business may face significant costs for your legal defence. But EPL can help your business cover those costs.
Workers’ Compensation Coverage
If an injured employee’s family decides to sue you, you may end up paying for legal expenses from your pockets.
Required by most states, workers’ compensation insurance provides benefits to employees for work-related injuries or illnesses. These benefits include Medical care, Wages from lost work time, Funeral costs and Disability care.
Simply put, it’s insurance protection for any type of retail store owner. It’s a customized form of business insurance designed to provide business owners with the coverage needed to keep their business operational after a catastrophe or a lawsuit.Â
Retail business insurance isn’t just a one-size-fits-all bundle of coverages filled with protection you don’t need. It’s actually a package of insurance options that you customize to protect yourself against the risks your unique retail store faces.Â
These insurance plans can be fine-tuned to meet your needs and budget, no matter the size or type of operation you run.
Nearly half of all retail businesses that temporarily close their doors after a natural disaster fail within 5 years.
