What cover can I purchase through insurance.com.au?
There are many business products available from insurance.com.au. As a Cafe or Restaurant owner, these types of insurance policies may be relevant to you.
Business Building and Contents
Covers accidental loss or damage to buildings, contents, and stock.
Extra benefits such as fire extinguishment costs, exploratory costs, and temporary protection/security guard costs. These may be highly relevant for safeguarding high-traffic businesses.
Unless specifically added, flood damage is not covered.
Theft, Money and Glass
Critical for cash-based or display-heavy establishments as this insurance covers theft or damage to a café or restaurant’s contents, money, and glass.
Extra benefits including coverage for recoding locks and replacing of keys are included.
Equipment Breakdown
Covers breakdown of key machinery like refrigerators and coffee machines, with optional coverage for deterioration of stock in cold storage.
Business Interruption
Covers loss of gross profit if the business is interrupted due to property damage, ensuring cash flow during recovery.
Business Liability
Covers legal liability for personal injury or property damage occurring on the premises, essential for managing customer incidents.
Things to consider if you are a cafe/restaurant owner that may improve your risk:
Do all deep fryers have an automatic suppression unit and exhaust extraction system?
Are deep fryers thermostatically controlled and fitted with an automatic over-temperature cut out device?
Are rangehoods and ducts cleaned professionally at least every six months? *
Are filters cleaned more than twice monthly?
Are there wet chemical and/or dry chemical B(E) fire extinguishers and fire blankets in place and serviced every 6 months?
Potential Scenario

A theft incident leaves your cash register and display windows damaged. With our Theft, Money, and Glass cover, you’re protected against losses and can recover without missing a beat.
