Our fish and chip shop insurance protects your premises, including frying equipment (owned and leased) and your stock. Should any of your property need repair or replacement due to fire damage or following a theft by forced entry. This will help you to keep your business going with minimal interruption.
We offer public and products liability tailored to your chippy’s needs. This provides cover for a wide range of third-party incidents. Public liability protects you should a customer have an accident on your premises and take legal action. Products liability covers you to defend allegations of food poisoning or if your food causes a customer to become unwell.
Should you suffer a fire or flood that means your fish and chip shop can no longer open as usual, as well as repairing the damage, business interruption cover under the policy will help you meet those continuing overheads until your business is back on its feet. Incidents such as fire or theft by forcible entry are usually covered as standard.
Our policy covers the risks faced when working in a fast-paced customer-facing environment. With the quick movement of hot food and liquids across hot surfaces, fast food employees risk injury and accidents that can be costly. Our policy includes employers' liability insurance with a £10 million limit of indemnity of meeting your legal requirements.
When you need to make a claim, we'll guide you through the process and get your claim settled as quickly as possible.
Employers' liability covers you for accidental bodily injury claims caused to staff, should you be at fault, resulting in a member of your staff getting injured at work. This type of cover is a legal requirement.
In addition you should have public liability insurance, which covers you for similar accidental injury or property damage losses caused to your customers or another member of the public again due to negligence on your part.
We also recommend you have products liability which covers you should one of your customers allege food poisoning.
No this is not necessary. We will cover you for all employees employed during the year. For SMEs insured under smaller package policies, cover is automatic and the premium non-adjustable. For larger businesses, we can arrange employers’ liability cover for all employees with the premium based on wage roll estimates and the premium then adjusted annually after expiry.
Yes we can. Your responsibility will however depend upon whether the drivers are directly employed by you. Employers’ liability is a standard cover section under most shop package policies, covering your legal liability for injury caused to direct employees whilst delivering food, provided that you are at fault in some way.
If you are using third-party delivery services then you should ensure the drivers hold their own public liability cover for the delivery of fish and chips. They will also need to notify their motor insurer that they’re using their vehicle for delivering food on your behalf.
If your menu expands to cover more than just fish and chips, please let our advisers know and they will ensure your policy extends to cover this. Please note that you must tell us if you offer outside catering at events.
Yes - even if your other fast food shops sell different products. For example, if you also have a burger bar or kebab shop we can insure them under one policy and negotiate for a competitive rate.
