What is Wholesale and Distribution Insurance?
Wholesalers insurance refers to coverage for businesses that play vital roles in the supply chain of most products, buying goods in bulk from manufacturers, and then selling them to retailers or other businesses.
Why Do I Need Wholesalers Insurance?
Insurance for wholesalers is usually needed if you own a business that purchases, resells, and distributes goods or merchandise to anyone other than the individual end-consumer. If you manage large quantities of merchandise that are purchased in bulk, you may want to consider wholesalers insurance.
