May 2009 – The Co-operative Insurance has launched a new range of specially designed sector-specific, flexible packaged business insurance products.
The range of tailored insurance products have been developed to meet the protection needs of the self employed, shop and salon owners, publicans, restaurateurs, hoteliers, office and surgery owners and residential property owners.
Policy holders will have access to a range of extensive insurance benefits as standard, and are also being given the option to tailor their insurance to meet the businesses individual needs with a range of optional covers.
The products are focused primarily on smaller business, which now make up the majority of businesses in the UK, and sole traders which account for a massive 74 per cent of all UK businesses.
David Neave, Director of General Insurance at The Co-operative Insurance, said: “Our new range of packaged insurance products now offers customers a much higher level of flexibility.
“We understand that one size does not fit all and have worked to move our business insurance products to another level, allowing customers to tailor benefits to best fit their businesses.”
The products allows shop, salon, office, surgery, pub, restaurant and hotel owners to benefit from a range of insurance products as standard whilst offering them the chance to pick and choose a range of market leading optional add-ons.
These include; employee dishonesty cover and 24-hour personal accident cover (Shop and Salon, Office and Surgery, Pub, Restaurant and Hotel), engineering protection (Residential Property) and contract works cover (Self Employed), to name a few.
The Co-operative Insurance remains the only high street insurer with a clear Ethical Policy and remains committed to its specialist UK based call centres.
