General Liability

General liability insurance is an important broad level of basic coverage for your company. This insurance helps protect your business from the financial difficulties that can arise due to a number of different hazardous events.

This coverage will also expand its coverage protection as your business grows. So when you add new store locations or new products for sale, they’re automatically covered.

  • Premises Liability – Premises liability insurance protects your art supplies when accidents happen inside the store, or around the outside premises areas. If a customer injures themselves on your business property, they can sue your company for the damages and bills they incur.
