Insurance for Pet Food and Supplement Manufacturers and Distributors

Every business should have proper risk management in place, and pet food manufacturing companies are no exception. Insurance coverage against property damage, general liability, and product liability is essential.

What Kind of Coverage Do Pet Food and Supplement Manufacturers Need?

If you manufacture or distribute pet food or supplements, it’s important to have insurance that covers your equipment and premises, as well as product liability insurance. In addition, you should have insurance to cover your employees while they’re working on your premises.

Some common risks faced by pet food manufacturing companies include:

• Product contamination
• Perishable ingredients or products spoiling due to a change in a controlled environment
• Environmental liability after accidental water or land contamination
• Product Liability due to health and safety risks and allergic reactions
• Injury from an animal hurting itself with the packaging
• Equipment breakdowns
• Property damage (e.g., storm damage)
• Employees injured by slips, trips, or falls

The above are just a few examples of the risks that pet food and supplement manufacturers face. There are many others, and manufacturers and distributors alike need to have insurance that covers them for the unexpected.

Comprehensive Insurance Protects Pet Food Manufacturers and Distributors

Pet food and supplement manufacturers and distributors face liability in several areas. Equipment failures can cost a significant amount in lost productivity or spoiled produce. Contaminated products can also lead to significant liability. For this reason, it’s important to have a policy that covers the direct costs associated with property damage or lost stock and the potentially significant costs associated with liability claims.

Even if you have existing buildings and equipment insurance policies, employer’s liability, and product liability insurance, having additional general liability coverage is a good idea.
