Let's build a custom insurance solution
At BFL CANADA, we offer a range of coverage solutions designed to keep your food industry organization fully operational, especially in times of crisis, and that allows you to continue enjoying the fruits of your labour.
CONTAMINATION
CONTAMINATION
Covers the company in the event of accidental or criminal contamination and pays for withdrawal costs, losses caused by a recall, as well as operating losses and product rehabilitation costs declared by your company or by public authorities.
Whether such contamination or recall is caused by the abnormal development of a natural component, a dosage or design error, a safety defect, the presence of foreign substances, a change in food hygiene standards or laws, or whether the product is qualified as unfit or dangerous to health, this insurance protects you.
Given the large number of frozen deals and the scarcity of new processes on the market, buyers with available capital to implement will tap into their networks to find exclusive business opportunities.
Covers your business in the event of physical or material damage to a third party or financial loss resulting from fault, negligence or recklessness on your part.
This insurance policy ensures your defence in case of possible legal proceedings and bears the costs incurred.
Covers your business in the event of a disaster that causes a serious reduction or even a total stoppage of your production.
This policy also covers additional costs such as the cost of decontaminating machinery, the cost of destroying unsold contaminated products, additional costs for re-marketing the products and professional fees, so that your activities can resume as soon as possible.
Overland route
Protects against the risks related to logistics and goods transported by truck in the event of a collision, overturning or rollover that would damage your products or delay customer delivery. Your products are also covered in case of loss due to theft or fire.
Seaway
Covers the product from the beginning of the journey to its point of sale, regardless of the location of the loss. Also insures your product in the various warehouses and in transit from your door to your client’s door.
Protects your corporate entity and its directors’ and officers’ personal liability from third-party lawsuits and defence-related costs. Coverage should include employment practices liability, environmental liability defence costs, outside directorship liability and more.
POLLUTION LIABILITY
POLLUTION LIABILITY

This policy protects you against a claim for pollution or environmental damage and associated costs that could be devastating for your business.
