The Kitchen Door & The Food Corridor
The Food Liability Insurance Program was designed specifically for those in the food and culinary industries. The Food Liability Insurance Program provides Commercial General Liability insurance, Inland Marine, and options for Trailer Coverage. See below for a list of qualified food providers. Inland Marine insurance and Trailer coverage are additional coverages and can be added to your policy.
By purchasing insurance through the Food Liability Insurance Program (FLIP), you get a competitive insurance policy with low premiums. The Food Liability Insurance Program accomplishes this by using the purchasing power of a Risk Purchasing Group. Because you are part of this group, acquiring insurance directly from a carrier, the cost savings are passed onto you. Once enrolled, each individual is issued a Certificate Of Insurance showing their own individual liability limits; you don’t share coverage limits with others, just premium savings. Your insurance policy becomes effective immediately after your online payment is verified. This only takes a few moments. Once the payment is processed, you can print your insurance certificate and add any additional insureds through your customer portal. Everything is at your fingertips.
