IPMG’s Stock Throughput Insurance program provides a single, flexible policy that covers goods both while in transit and while in storage. Designed for agents and brokers, the program simplifies placement for clients with complex domestic or global supply chains—by land, sea, or air—while also addressing warehousing and distribution exposures.
Ideal Accounts and Appetite
This program fits manufacturers, importers, exporters, distributors, and wholesalers whose operations move goods frequently between production sites, warehouses, distribution centers, and customer locations. IPMG looks for accounts that need broad cargo protection across multiple transit legs and storage points.
Example accounts include:
- A furniture importer shipping containers from Asia to several U.S. distribution centers and retail outlets
- A regional food manufacturer moving finished product from production lines into refrigerated warehouses and out to grocery distributors
Coverage Highlights and Advantages
- All-risk coverage for physical loss or damage to stock in transit by land, sea, or air
- Coverage extends to warehousing, packing, and distribution facilities to reduce gaps between transit and property programs
- Protection typically begins when the insured assumes responsibility and ends when goods are delivered to the final customer
- Streamlined policy structure eliminates potential gaps between inland marine and property placements
- Ability to tailor limits and terms for complex supply chains and multi-leg logistics operations
