INSURANCE FOR WHOLESALE FLORISTS & FLOWER IMPORTERS

Why Wholesale Florists Need Specialist Insurance

Wholesale florists and flower importers operate at the heart of the floral supply chain, handling large volumes of high-value, perishable stock often sourced internationally. Any disruption - whether during transit, storage or distribution - can result in significant financial loss within hours.

Standard retail insurance rarely reflects the risks faced by wholesalers. Specialist cover is essential to protect against spoilage, refrigeration failure, delayed imports, property damage and liability claims arising from large-scale operations.

Common Risks for Wholesale Florists & Importers

The wholesale floral sector faces complex operational risks involving storage, logistics, staffing and contractual obligations.


  • Spoilage due to refrigeration or cold-store failure
  • Damage to imported stock during transit or unloading
  • Delays at ports, customs or distribution hubs
  • Fire or flood damage to warehouses and storage facilities
  • Theft of high-value floral stock
  • Employee injuries in warehouses or loading bays
  • Loss of income following operational shutdown
