I have a client who owns a warehouse and does internet retail sales of ammunition brass (very little hazmat) and other shooting and reloading accessories. He will be shipping with UPS within the country. His CGL and BPP are already written with my agency.

Can anyone help?

Molly,

How much in limits are you looking for per shipment? Annual sales?

Where abouts in Florida is the risk?

Let me know. I might have someone who can help.

If the coverage you require and the annual shipments are high enough, I may be able to manuscript a stock through-put policy that would cover his shippings world to world and while in his warehouse.

Thank you for all of your replies!

Doug, All Risk looks like they may be a great partnership for my agency- I will reach out to them.

Dennis, average shipment is $500 with a max per shipment about $5,000 and annual sales are $400k. Located in Seminole, FL (Pinellas County- Tampa Bay Area).

Greg, if the numbers fit into the stock throughput market then my client and I would be happy to welcome a proposal. Though he isn't doing any international shipping, he does import from Finland. Would he be covered on those items also?

Nancy, I'm going to contact Empire, thank you!
