Why Pizza Shop Owners Are Overpaying for Business Insurance Renewals

Are you a pizza shop owner shocked by your latest insurance renewal quote? You’re not alone. Our research shows alarming premium increases across the industry:

  • New pizza shop: 111.71% increase (from $2,170.81 to $4,595.98)
  • Established restaurant: 27.81% increase (from $4,380.33 to $5,598.33)
  • Franchise pizza shop: 53.52% increase (from $3,016.98 to $4,631.83)

On average, pizza and takeaway shops are facing a 26% premium hike at renewal.

Why Are Premiums Skyrocketing?

  • Increased claims — a rise in liability and property damage claims across the industry
  • Economic factors — inflation and supply chain issues driving up repair and replacement costs
  • Evolving risks — new threats like cybercrime are pushing insurers to adjust pricing
  • Market consolidation — fewer insurers competing in the pizza shop market

What Can You Do About It?

1. Get a free insurance health check — analyse your current coverage, identify gaps or overlaps, and compare your premium to industry benchmarks.

2. Work with a specialised broker — navigate the market, negotiate with insurers and ensure cover matches pizza shop risks.

3. Bundle your policies — combining property, liability and business interruption can often lead to discounts.

4. Reassess your coverage needs — adjust limits, add or remove covers, and explore cost-effective alternatives as your business evolves.

5. Implement risk management strategies — improve safety protocols, upgrade security and train staff on best practices.

6. Explore deductible options — a higher excess can lower premiums if the balance suits your cash flow.

7. Take advantage of insurer discounts — claims-free history, safety certifications and loyalty programs can all help.
