Cannabis Insurance

Cannabis insurance is a type of coverage tailored to the unique risks and needs of cannabis operations. Insurance for cannabis can protect against various potential losses.

Some of these may be typical for any business, such as property loss and damage. However, cannabis businesses also face a variety of unique risks such as crop loss, regulatory compliance, and product liability.

Of course, cannabis insurance can also vary by business. Dispensary insurance, for instance, can provide more coverage for damage to finished stock and product liability. While a growing facility will require more specific cannabis product insurance relating to crop insurance and weather-related events. Cannabis property insurance can provide comprehensive coverage for facilities and commercial property where cannabis is grown and/or sold.

An insurance professional can help you understand the unique needs of your cannabis business and tailor coverage to them.

Cannabis businesses across the product lifecycle face unique risks related to the industry. It is not as straightforward as your typical agriculture or retail venture due to federal and state laws, regulations, and product liability.
