Target accounts include: Mobile vendors operating push carts, food carts, or kiosks Temporary booth operators at flea markets, farmer’s markets, and pop-up events Vendors selling general merchandise, apparel, handmade goods, collectibles, or food items Accounts with high-hazard operations—such as amusement rides, large-scale food processing, fireworks, or heavy manufacturing—typically fall outside the program’s appetite.

Territories and Availability This Flea Market Vendor Insurance program is available in AZ, CA, CO, ID, NV, NM, UT, and WY. Both admitted and non-admitted market options are accessible depending on the state, carrier, and specific risk profile. Why Work With Colonial General Insurance Agency, Inc.? As a Managing General Agency and Excess & Surplus Lines broker, Colonial General provides agents with marketplace access and underwriting expertise for niche commercial programs. Their distribution and carrier relationships help place hard-to-bind or non-standard vendor accounts efficiently. The program’s flexibility—additional insureds at no cost, inland marine for mobile stock, and liquor liability options—makes it practical for agents working with seasonal and mobile vendors. Example scenarios that fit well: You might have a client who sells handmade jewelry at weekend markets across multiple states; scheduled floater and inland marine can protect inventory while in transit. A small food-vendor operating a pushcart at farmers' markets may need short-term liability with optional liquor liability for certain events and business income if a covered shutdown occurs.
