Your cover
Whatever your activity, French business insurance is built around professional liability and the protection of your premises, stock and people. We assemble the cover that matches your trade and the way you actually work.
Cover for damage or loss your business causes to clients or third parties, essential and sometimes compulsory for many trades.
Protection for your shop, office or workshop and everything in it, against fire, water damage, theft and more.
Help to keep going if an insured event stops you trading, covering lost income while you get back on your feet.
Cover for tools, machinery and stock, whether on your premises or being used out on a job.
Fleet and commercial vehicle cover for vans and cars used in your business across the Charente.
Specific guarantees such as the ten-year building warranty (garantie décennale) required in the building trades.
