Vaping has been one of the fastest growing markets in the UK over the past decade. Despite this, insurers have been slow to catch up with the specific insurance requirements of this sector. Most don’t understand the risks faced by ecigarette shops and associated vaping businesses and will provide cover that they think is the best fit. We know of numerous vaping shops who have retail insurance for a tobacconist shop. In reality, the risks are quite different.
What can you do to make sure you have the correct cover in place?
Don’t try and buy your insurance direct from an insurer. The chances are you’ll end up with the wrong cover – and will only discover this if and when you need to make a claim.
