It is set up to give retail agents a single policy to manage inventory-at-rest and inventory-in-transit without duplicative reporting. Underwriters are experienced with hybrid inland marine/cargo risks and routinely tailor terms to production flows, seasonal peaks, and international shipments. Ideal accounts and appetite This program fits clients who: Maintain inventory that regularly moves between suppliers, production sites and customers Require protection for perishable stock sensitive to power outages Import or export goods and need combined transit and storage coverage Operate in coastal areas or have complex logistics chains Typically acceptable: wholesalers, processors, importers, distributors, and manufacturers with standard storage practices. Higher-risk classes, unusual storage conditions, or extremely high single-location values should be discussed with underwriting before submission. Coverage advantages Single policy covers both inland transit and stock, simplifying claims and administration All-risk wording with optional catastrophic cover extensions (Wind/Flood/EQ) where needed Profit commission dividend feature can improve client retention and net cost Simplified reporting reduces administrative burden for both agents and insureds Underwriting notes and minimums Minimum premium for the program is $5,000. Underwriting evaluates product type, storage conditions, transit modes, loss history, and seasonal exposure. Coastal and international risks are acceptable but require details on warehousing, inland transit procedures, packaging, and refrigeration for perishables. Provide photos of storage, basic logistics procedures, and most recent loss runs to accelerate review.
