What is Theft Cover?
You’ve worked hard to build your business from the ground up. Along the way, you’ve invested in some pricey pieces of equipment, and you may be the proud owner of valuable stock. Your stock and contents are a valuable part of your business. Without any or all of your stock and contents, your business operations might be severely impacted, or even brought to a standstill.
Many Kiwi small business owners have chosen to take out Theft cover to protect their businesses should the worst happen.
Theft Cover*
This insurance product can cover your contents, stock or from theft, attempted theft or armed hold up. It is not uncommon for theft insurance to require the item stolen to have been securely stored before the theft and for there to be evidence of forcible or violent entry in the commission of the theft.
Did you know?
In New Zealand, retail crime alone adds up to over $1 billion a year (business.govt.nz 2021), with estimated losses of $2 million a day in stolen products (startupdaily.net 2016)? This is no small sum, and small business owners should not have to foot the bill for this crime. This is just one reason why taking out Theft cover appeals to so many Kiwi small business owners.
