As a small business owner, you know numerous risks are associated with owning and operating your own company.

In this blog post, Granite Insurance will answer all your questions! Keep reading for everything you need to know about commercial insurance, then contact us to request a proposal

Coverage for Small Business Owners

Small business insurance is a type of insurance designed to protect businesses from financial losses. There are many different types of commercial insurance, and the coverages you need will depend on the specific risks associated with your business. Some of the most common coverages include property insurance, workers’ compensation, and general liability, but at Granite Insurance, we also offer much more.

The Benefits of Insuring Your Business

There are many benefits of small business insurance, the most important being financial protection in the event of a covered loss. Without commercial insurance, you would be responsible for paying any damages or legal fees out of your own pocket, which could quickly lead to financial ruin. Insurance also helps you protect your employees, customers, and vendors.
