Why You Need Insurance for Your Craft Brewery Business


As a craft brewery owner, you face a variety of risks that could affect your business. Insurance helps safeguard your operations, property, equipment, and staff. Here’s why having the right brewery insurance is crucial:

Property Damage Protection: Your brewery’s property, including equipment, brewing tanks, and ingredients, is valuable. Insurance helps cover repair or replacement costs if an unforeseen incident, like a fire or theft, occurs.

Public Liability Insurance: Hosting tastings, brewery tours, or selling at local events means you’ll interact with the public. Public liability insurance covers you for claims resulting from injury or property damage that could occur on your premises or during events.

Product Liability: If a customer suffers harm from consuming your product, product liability insurance protects you against legal costs and claims, keeping your brewery’s reputation intact.

Business Interruption Insurance: If your brewery has to shut down temporarily due to a covered event (like property damage or equipment failure), this coverage ensures that your revenue continues while your business is restored.Employers' Liability Insurance: If you employ staff, this insurance covers the cost of compensation if they are injured or become ill as a result of their work at your brewery.

What Does Craft Brewery Insurance Cover?

Property Insurance

Covers damage or loss of your brewery’s physical property, including buildings, brewing equipment, stock, and ingredients due to fire, theft, or natural disasters.

Employer's Liability Insurance

Employer’s liability insurance is a legal requirement for most businesses in the UK if you have employees. It protects your business against claims made by employees who suffer injury or illness as a result of their work. This policy covers the costs of legal fees and any compensation owed to the employee, ensuring your business stays protected if a workplace accident occurs.

Commercial Property Insurance

Commercial property insurance covers damage to your business premises and its contents, including equipment, stock, and office furniture. Whether you own or lease the property, this policy helps protect your physical assets against risks such as fire, flooding, theft, and vandalism. This cover helps your business recover quickly and resume operations after an incident.

Product Liability Insurance

Covers you if a consumer suffers injury or damage due to a defect in your product. This is especially important in your industry as we will see very large claims for products that have caused illness, so it is essential that you have the correct cover in place for this.
