Shop Insurance

All retailers have their own unique set of trading characteristics, and whether you sell clothing online, repair bicycles in a workshop, or operate a hybrid coffee/book shop, we have the expertise to find tailored solutions for you.

As a retailer, you’re likely to be exposed to a whole range of risks including material damage, business interruption, theft of takings, casualty liability, products liability, cyber liability and legal expenses to name a few. By appointing John Whippy Insurance Brokers, we will work for you to ensure that you are aware of the extent of your coverage, and highlight any risk exposures, so that these can be effectively managed.

At John Whippy Insurance Brokers we understand the importance of providing a reliable and local service, with professional advice, so that our clients can build long-term trust with us when taking care of their insurance needs and requirements. We prefer to spend time listening to our clients, and then select or build appropriate insurance coverage at a premium that is acceptable to them. Ultimately, we want all of our clients to understand the cover they are purchasing, and have confidence that they are paying the right price for the right cover!

We do not disappear after point of sale, we are there to guide and advise our clients throughout the life of their policy – including with claims management.

There’s no shortage of choice when it comes to shop insurance, but this can often confuse matters further. We offer both package and specialist shop insurance cover based on your requirements. That means that every insurance policy we arrange for retailers is different; therefore, we start with an initial call to discuss what your business does, what it’s potential exposures are, and what cover, we believe, is required to give you the right protection.
