Recommended business insurance policies for retail stores
From smoke shops to electronics stores, retail shops are susceptible to theft, fires, injuries, and lawsuits. Insureon helps retail business owners secure the policies they need for their unique risks.
Business owner’s policy
A BOP bundles commercial property insurance and general liability insurance in one plan. It's often the most cost-effective type of business insurance for retailers.
BEST FOR

- Business interruption incidents
General liability insurance
This policy covers common retail store risks, such as a customer slipping in a spill at a grocery store. Bundle with commercial property insurance for savings in a BOP.
BEST FOR

Liquor liability insurance
Shops that sell alcohol need liquor liability insurance. This policy provides liability protection if a customer who bought alcohol injures someone or damages their property.
BEST FOR
- Injuries caused by intoxicated customers

Commercial umbrella insurance
Umbrella insurance boosts coverage on a retailer's general liability insurance, employer’s liability, or commercial auto insurance once the policy reaches its limit.
BEST FOR
- Customer injury lawsuits
- Customer property damage lawsuits
- Employee injury lawsuits
Commercial auto insurance
