Hospitality Insurance Explained

Whether you’re offering an upscale dining experience with reservations months in advance or a bed and breakfast hosting guests and showcasing the beauty of your community, every hospitality business faces risks specific to the industry. To be in the hospitality industry, you inherently must be willing to take risks. With the right insurance policy in place, we can ensure your risks are worth taking while covering those that could harm your business.

From serving food and drinks to hosting guests and ensuring the safety and experience of their stay, the unexpected can happen. Things like equipment breakdown, fire damage, food spoilage, and liability can all have a major impact on your business. These specific risks are unique to the industry, and our experts can help.

At Westland, we have a comprehensive hospitality package that has everything to keep your business covered, including:

  • Business Liability
    Liability is the financial responsibility of your business resulting from damage that’s caused to property or bodily injury of a third party. Whether your company has four employees or 400, every business runs the risk of causing damage or injury to others. Think of it as your business’s first line of defense.

  • Business Property
    Business property insurance provides business owners with protection for the most critical physical assets of their business and, in turn, peace of mind to keep their business running. The unexpected can happen, and business property coverage looks after protecting your assets if there’s a loss. To learn more about business property insurance, click here.
  • Business Interruption
    A vital element of business insurance is the timeline between a loss occurring and greeting clients back to your business. That’s where business interruption coverage comes into play. Your business’s downtime can be covered, so the financial impact of being closed isn’t detrimental to the company you’ve worked hard to build.
