Our expert brokers offer tailored insurance coverage to safeguard your business, ensuring peace of mind and uninterrupted operations.

Understanding the Retail and Wholesale Industry

The retail and wholesale industry encompasses a diverse range of businesses that sell goods to consumers or other businesses. Wholesale businesses primarily sell to other businesses, whilst retail businesses cater to consumers and offer a wide range of goods. At Konsileo, we provide comprehensive insurance coverage for both retail and wholesale businesses, addressing their specific needs and protecting against potential risks.

Essential Insurance Policies for the Retail and Wholesale Industry

In the dynamic retail and wholesale industry, having the right insurance coverage is crucial.

Common insurance policies within the sector include:

• Buildings, Stock, and Contents Insurance: Protects your physical assets, including your premises, inventory, and fixtures, against risks such as fire, theft, and natural disasters.
• Goods in Transit Insurance: Covers goods whilst they are being transported from one location to another, ensuring their safety and minimising financial losses.
• Motor Fleet Insurance: Provides coverage for a fleet of vehicles used in your retail or wholesale operations, protecting against accidents, theft, or damage.
• Public and Employers’ Liability Insurance: Safeguards your business against claims for injuries or property damage caused to third parties or employees during business operations.

Specialised Insurance Coverage for Unique Risks

The retail and wholesale industry also presents unique risks that require specialised insurance coverage. At Konsileo, we understand these challenges and offer tailored solutions, including:

• Product Recall Insurance: Protects your business from financial losses associated with recalling products due to defects, contamination, or safety concerns.
• Frozen or Chilled Stock Insurance: Covers the cost of replacing perishable goods in the event of spoilage or equipment failure.

The Rise of E-Commerce and the Need for Cyber Insurance

In recent years, e-commerce has experienced exponential growth, accounting for 28% of all retail sales. The post-pandemic landscape has further emphasised the importance of online retail, making cyber insurance a necessity. Independent stores, in particular, are at risk due to the general lack of cybersecurity measures. Visa estimates that 95% of credit card breaches target small businesses. It is imperative for retailers, especially smaller ones, to ensure they are fully protected against cyber risks.
