What is Retail Insurance?
Retail Insurance is a combined policy tailored to meet the needs of shops and stores of all sizes. From slips and trips to theft and stock damage, this cover protects both your physical premises and your day-to-day operations.
It's flexible, affordable, and essential for any business with a customer-facing location or valuable stock.
Whether you're running a boutique, a bakery, or a bustling convenience store, unexpected disruptions can cost your business more than just money. Our Shops and Retail Insurance policies are designed to give you full peace of mind—so you can focus on sales, not setbacks.

What Does Shops & Retail Insurance Cover?
Our policies are fully customisable depending on the nature of your retail business. Typical cover options include:
Public Liability Insurance

Employers’ Liability Insurance
A legal requirement if you employ staff, covering work-related injuries or illnesses.
Shop Contents & Stock Cover

Crowthorne understood my business, gave me options that made sense, and didn’t try to sell me anything extra. When we had a break-in, the claim was handled fast and professionally. I’ve stuck with them ever since.
Retail’s unpredictable, but my insurance doesn’t have to be.
