What we bring to your business
Product recall expertise - Our team of dedicated product recall brokers are skilled in placement of contaminated products (CPI), trade name restoration and reputation risk protection
Placement solutions - Food and drink manufacturing risks are becoming increasingly difficult to place in the market – with fire safety systems and exposure to composite panels of particular concern for insurers. Our close insurer partnerships allow us to secure cover even for hazardous trades
Marine cargo - Our marine cargo team has extensive knowledge and expertise in the food and beverage industry. This includes the creation of a valuable niche product for ‘protein producers’ which covers the insured against loss of the asset as well as loss of revenue
Claims expertise - We have worked with our food and drink clients across retail and wholesale, helping them recover over $1billion of losses. We nurture close relationships with our clients and organise regular claims workshops to explore ways to prepare for a BI claim
Consultative contract reviews - By examining the terms of your existing contracts, we make sure that you’re able to take full advantage of coverage you have in place for trigger events
