About this listen

New York City's vibrant restaurant scene is a dream destination for culinary entrepreneurs. However, this culture and flavor come with a complex web of risks. Join Blue Rock Insurance Services. They will discuss how to transform insurance. Instead of viewing it as a regulatory requirement, they will show how to make it a strategic asset. We will explore ⁠Khaosan⁠, a popular Thai restaurant located in Brooklyn. We will also focus on its owner, Amita. This will help us understand how to conduct a comprehensive insurance review. We will explore the unique vulnerabilities that arise from managing diverse revenue streams. These services include dine-in options and online orders. They also offer in-house delivery and catering. Additionally, they participate in events such as the Thai Select festival and Pig Week on Staten Island.

Key Takeaways and Specialized Coverage:

  • Protecting Inventory: We address Amita's single biggest worry—the walk-in freezer breaking down. Equipment Breakdown and Spoilage Coverage is an add-on that covers compressor repair and reimburses for the full value of lost inventory.
  • Addressing Alcohol Liability: Since New York has strict "Dram Shop" laws, a separate Liquor Liability Policy is essential to protect against lawsuits arising from the service of alcohol.
  • The Delivery Gap: If employees use their own cars to drop off orders, their personal auto policies typically exclude accidents occurring during commercial activities. Hired and Non-Owned Auto (HNOA) Insurance protects the restaurant from liability if an employee is at fault while delivering.
  • Safeguarding Revenue: Learn how Cyber Liability Insurance policies can cover losses from fraudulent credit card chargebacks and "payment card disputes."
  • Event Coverage: Ensure your General Liability policy is endorsed or supplemented by Event and Catering Insurance to cover off-site operations, such as festival booths. Tune in to learn how to build a custom safety net for your business and safeguard your investment.
