Food Industry
For us at Woodward Markwell the Food Industry is a real passion. Our specialist Account Executives have many years experience previously as underwriters and now as client facing in this sector. We have many clients in this sector from Flour Millers, Meat Processors to local Bakers.
We have experienced client facing Account Executives, who in turn have underwriting knowledge as underwriters working here at Woodward Markwell. This gives us the persepective we need to understand the issues both from the client’s and the Insurers level. Examples of issues in this sector include Insurers concerns over Composite Panelling and Electrics and Clients concerns over credit issues of their customers (which can be Insured).
We therefore feel we understand this industry extremely well and can put forward a comprehensive risk transfer mechanism to suit the needs of each client. Each potential or new client will go through a process which includes a full review of the current insurance programme and claims experience, and a survey of each location. Once this has been completed we would then carry out a full market rebroke to get the best possible cover to suit the needs of our client.
In specialising in this industry we would recommend consideration of the following:-
- Property and Business Interruption Insurance.
- Employers and Public/Products Liability Insurance.
- Marine Insurance (Goods In Transit).
- Directors & Officers Insurance (including Corporate Entity, Employment Practices Liability and Crime).
- Legal Expenses Insurance.
- Product Recall Insurance.
- Environmental Liability.
- Credit Insurance.
- Group Business Travel and Personal Accident Insurance.
- Engineering Inspection and breakdown of machinery Insurance.
- Terrorism Insurance.
If you would like some, free advice, or would like us to carry out a review of your insurances please do not hesitate to contact either David McGowan or Andrew Johnson who will be more than happy to assist.
