Comprehensive Solutions To Protect You
Operating a cannabis business in British Columbia comes with unique exposures that standard commercial policies often overlook. Fire, theft, vandalism, equipment breakdown, and product spoilage can quickly derail operations and strain your cash flow. As a cannabis-focused insurance broker, we analyze your facility layout, security measures, inventory values, and key revenue drivers to identify where you are most vulnerable. Then we negotiate with specialized insurers to protect your buildings, stock, equipment, cash, and revenue under one coordinated program. Coverage can extend from seedlings and mature plants to finished product in storage or transit, as well as your office contents, signage, and tenant improvements. By proactively managing these everyday risks, insurance helps stabilize your operating costs, supports compliance with lenders and landlords, and gives you confidence to focus on growing your business.
Cannabis operations need more than basic property insurance; they require a carefully assembled package that matches the entire lifecycle of the product. As your broker, we coordinate commercial property, crop, and stock coverage with general liability, product liability, and tenants legal liability to protect you if something goes wrong on-site or after products leave your premises. For owners with significant equipment and technology investments, we can add equipment breakdown and cyber coverage for point-of-sale, e‑commerce, and patient data systems. Business interruption insurance helps replace lost income and extra expenses if a covered loss forces you to slow down or temporarily close. Whether you run an indoor grow, licensed processing lab, cannabis retail storefront, or vertically integrated operation, we help build a comprehensive, scalable program that grows alongside your business.
Cannabis claims in British Columbia often stem from fire, water damage, theft, or equipment breakdown affecting grow rooms, processing areas, or retail spaces. In a typical fire claim, property insurance can respond to repair the building, replace damaged equipment, and cover lost stock, while business interruption coverage helps replace lost income during downtime. If a refrigeration or HVAC failure causes product spoilage, stock and equipment breakdown coverage may pay to replace affected inventory and repair the system. For dispensaries, robbery or burglary claims can trigger coverage for stolen stock, damaged fixtures, and in some cases, money and securities, subject to policy limits. Product liability coverage can respond if a customer alleges bodily injury or property damage from your product. As your broker, we clarify claim pathways, help document losses, and advocate for fair settlements.
