Do I need franchise insurance?

If you have employees or motor vehicles, then insurance is legally required. Other covers are optional and it’s your choice if you insure your franchise for these.

What is the minimum number of franchisees I need to get franchise insurance?

There is no minimum number. If you have not yet franchised your business and plan to do so in the future, we can structure an insurance plan that takes this into account.

What experience do you have in franchise insurance?

We have worked with franchises for over 15 years. We have large established franchises within our client bank, as well as brand new start up franchises, so we can appreciate the business risks each franchise faces.

Would I need to sign up for a minimum period of time?

All our insurance policies are for 12 months, there would be no contractual agreements other than the insurance policy.

Do you offer all insurances a franchise would need?

Yes, we can cater for all insurances from mandatory motor insurance right up to niche products such as credit insurance.

What’s in it for me as a franchisor?

Arranging your insurance programme through an award-winning insurance broker will provide peace of mind that all franchisees participating in the franchise insurance programme are covered to the right level. By the very essence of franchising your business you are building the volume of businesses operating under your brand and therefore increasing your buying power. With increased buying power comes options: to generate income for yourself, to reduce premiums for your franchisees, or to accrue a fund to disperse as you see fit. The franchise sector is a really exciting and attractive sector for insurance providers and one we are keen to work with partners to explore in more detail.
