Insurance cover for your takeaway business

Even if your customers spend a few minutes under your canopy, there are many things you can be responsible for, including:
  • Trips Slips and Falls - This involves simply changing a wrong extension cord or a corner of your reception mat, and before you know it, you need medical care, pain and discomfort, wasted wages, Responsible for physiotherapy. The list is almost endless.
  • Bad food - Of course, you are proud of the quality of your food, but unavoidable accidents happen, and customers can get sick. Even if you and your employees handle food properly, an error in the supply chain and your product can be contagious. If this happens, you are responsible for the medical care of your guardians, which can add a lot of money.
  • My shop is in a safe place, and I don't have to worry about closing my doors because of natural disasters.
Even if your location is historically safe, natural disasters are not the only cause of business disruption:
  • Explosive pipes
  • Massive equipment failure
  • A fire broke out in a nearby shop.
  • A strange accident where a driver hits his car against the window in front of you.
  • I employ good people who will never steal from me.
It is reasonable to expect that the people you hire will do the right thing and be honest in their dealings. Unfortunately, this is not always the case. Even a good person can make terrible choices, which can cost you a lot of money.

In addition, theft can come from other unscrupulous sources, such as delivery people, caregivers, or consumers.
