Protecting Your Inventory

Your inventory is often your biggest asset—and your biggest risk. Make sure your policy covers:

  • Replacement Cost: Get enough to replace inventory at today's prices, not depreciated value
  • Seasonal Fluctuations: If inventory peaks during holidays, make sure limits are high enough
  • Off-Premises Coverage: Inventory in transit or at trade shows may need additional coverage
  • High-Value Items: Jewelry, electronics, or other high-value items may need scheduled coverage
