Insurance That Adapts to Your Stock Levels

Many businesses hold much higher levels of stock at certain times of year - Christmas, Black Friday, summer sales, product launches and trade shows. Our seasonal and variable stock cover is designed to reflect these peaks, so you are not under-insured when you need protection the most.

Flexible limits and extensions designed around fluctuating inventory levels.


  • Cover for seasonal stock increases (e.g. Christmas, Black Friday)
  • Variable stock limits based on turnover or agreed peaks
  • Protection for stock at your premises
  • Cover for stock in warehouses or third-party storage

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

+ -

How does seasonal stock cover work?

Seasonal stock cover allows higher sums insured at peak periods, or a variable limit based on agreed declarations, so your insurance reflects real stock values throughout the year.

What happens if my stock level exceeds the normal sum insured?

If you have not arranged seasonal or variable cover, you could be under-insured. Our seasonal stock options help prevent shortfalls during known peak periods.

+ -

Can cover include warehouses and third-party storage?

Yes - we can extend cover to stock held in your own warehouses, third-party warehouses or fulfilment centres, subject to insurer terms.

+ -

Does this cover stock in transit?

Stock in transit can be included as an additional cover, protecting goods while being moved between sites, warehouses or customers.

+ -

Can seasonal stock cover form part of a combined policy?

Yes - seasonal and variable stock cover is often arranged as part of a wider commercial combined or retail policy, alongside property, liability and business interruption sections.
