We cover individual US-based merchants setting up a temporary space to sell their wares or services at fairs, festivals, farmers’ markets, trade shows, special events, conventions, etc. Think food trucks and farm stands, artisan crafters and kettle korn booths, mall kiosks and Renaissance festival shops. Our policy provides protection against bodily injury to a customer/guest or property damage to a premises you occupy and insures the business, including employees and volunteer workers. This policy does not insure contract workers; it also does not insure permanent storefronts, like a shop inside a mall or a brick-and-mortar store on Main Street.
Insureds must be a US resident with a US mailing address to be eligible for coverage under this policy, and the premium must be paid in US dollars.
Approximately six weeks prior to your expiration, we will mail you an invoice.

You can write your changes on the invoice and mail it to us, or call into the office and we will make the changes over the phone.
To renew your coverage you can mail in the invoice with your check or money order, or you can pay online with your credit or debit card. There is a 3.25% service fee for paying with a card. You can avoid this fee by mailing the invoice back with your check or money order.
