What insurance do takeaway shops need?
Public liability insurance is often a very important cover for takeaway shops, as it can protect you if someone is injured or their property is damaged because of your business. Simply Business offers between £1 million and £5 million in cover, to protect you against this cost.
If you have employees, contractors, casual workers or temporary staff, you’re required by law to take out employers’ liability insurance. It’ll cover claims from employees who’ve been injured or become seriously ill as a result of working for you.
The average insurance claim for a takeaway restaurant is £2,682 – could you afford this if the worst happened? (Average claim being £2,682. Based on data from 21 November 2018 - 20 November 2019, for comparison only. Cancellation charges may apply, please refer to our full terms & conditions.)
