Stock at scale
Warehouse values can shift quickly. Review peak inventory, storage conditions, and the time needed to replace essential goods.
BUSINESS INSURANCE / WHOLESALERS & DISTRIBUTORS
Keep the business between supplier and customer in view.
Inventory, storage, transport, and reliable delivery all matter to your customers. Ironhill helps wholesalers and distributors review insurance around the responsibilities they carry between each handoff.
THE WORK BEHIND THE BUSINESS
Insurance for wholesalers & distributors.
Grounded in your day to day.
Your product mix and distribution agreements are a useful place to begin. Importing, repackaging, labeling, or assembling goods can change the liability picture beyond simply moving stock.
Goods in transit
Responsibility can transfer at different points in a sale. Understand the shipping terms before deciding how transit coverage should fit.
Products in other hands
A product allegation may involve several businesses in a supply chain. Tell us about brands, suppliers, and the markets you serve.

AS YOUR BUSINESS CHANGES
Know where responsibility changes hands
Goods in your warehouse, in transit and at a customer’s premises may involve different insurance arrangements. Shipping terms and supplier contracts help explain where your responsibilities begin and end.
We’ll start with your product mix, storage values and delivery operation. From there, we can help you identify the coverage questions behind a new supplier, larger order or additional warehouse.
Talk through your next stepA QUOTE THAT STARTS WITH YOU
What goes into your insurance quote?

- Products and their end uses
- Warehouse construction and peak stock
- Shipping terms and delivery fleet use
A LITTLE MORE CLARITY
Your questions.
A useful starting point.
Need to talk through something specific?
Ask Ironhill ↗Is product recall the same as products liability?
No. Recall costs and liability for injury or damage are different exposures. Ask specifically about recall needs for your products.
How should I estimate inventory values?
Include peak values and replacement costs, not just the amount held on an average day. We can help you identify the valuation questions to take to insurers.
What affects the cost of insurance for wholesalers & distributors?
Pricing depends on the work you do, where you operate, your claims history and the coverage you select. Details such as products and their end uses, warehouse construction and peak stock, shipping terms and delivery fleet use help an insurer assess your business. We’ll help you compare the available terms as well as the premium.
Can I request a quote before I have every document?
Yes. Start with your business activities and the information you have. We can help identify what else is needed to explore options. Submitting a request does not put insurance in force.
