Overview of Wholesale and Distribution Insurance
The wholesale and distribution industry is a key part of the economy. It involves storing, managing, and distributing products from manufacturers to retailers and other businesses. This includes a wide range of businesses like food and beverage wholesalers, electronics distributors, plumbing supplies, and even cannabis wholesalers. These companies make sure goods are available where and when needed, connecting production to consumption.
Wholesale and distribution businesses run large warehouses, manage big inventories, and depend on transportation networks. They face challenges like managing stock levels, making timely deliveries, and keeping products safe. Whether handling valuable electronics or perishable food, there’s a big risk of financial loss from damage, theft, or delays. That’s why insurance is crucial to protect against these risks.
