Hospitality Insurance
Helping to take care of your hospitality businesses like you take care of your guests
Whether you’re into the pickleball business, running restaurants across the region, or hosting sports teams for their next practice or game at your sports facility, hospitality insurance can help protect you and your guests against damage or injuries caused by foodborne illnesses, property or structural damage, supply loss or other emergencies.
What is hospitality insurance?
Hospitality insurance is coverage that helps to protect you, your guests and your business in the event of an accident, damage or loss. It can also provide legal support if a person, like an employee or guest, gets hurt or sick as a result of a business issue, like an injury from structural damage or foodborne illness from soured food.

Benefits of having hospitality insurance
While not mandatory for owning or running a hospitality business, having hospitality insurance coverage is highly recommended as even the smallest accident could end up with unexpected high costs. The benefits of this coverage include helping to protect yourself and your employees from work injuries or severe illness and guests from business-related injuries and illnesses. It can also protect your business against legal claims and costs, investments like property and stocks, and situations outside your control like inclement weather damage, fire, vandalism and theft. It can also be easier to get third-party investments for your hospitality businesses and licenses if you have insurance policies in place.
