The combination of the insurance team and the foodies in the office have lead to the creation of a team dedicated to helping the mobile food industry find the balance of price and insurance coverage that they are seeking.

Specialty businesses such as gourmet food trucks food carts, kiosks, and even bicycle-based food vendors have become increasingly popular in the last few years, even though the business model has been around for some time. The variety of foods that we see thanks to new mobile food vendors keeps our team excited.

Why do I need insurance as an Texas mobile food vendor, food cart or food truck?


There are many risks in the concessionaire business. For example, if you sell food, there is the risk of a food poisoning claim. If you have a booth where you set up a computer or light that you plug in and someone trips over your power cable, you could be sued for medical bills or bodily injury. More sample claims are available on the concessionaire insurance website.

Why choose Stratum Insurance Agency LLC as your team for your insurance in Texas or over 41 other states?

Important Coverages Available under a Concessionaire Insurance Policy
  • General Liability Insurance
  • Products Coverage
  • For Food Carts: Coverage for the Cart - Theft, Physical Damage
  • For Food Trucks / Catering Trucks - commercial auto insurance
  • Coverage for your inventory
A word about "Theft Coverage".


Not all concessionaire insurance policies are the same. Stratum Insurance Agency LLC sells policies that offer theft coverage in most cases.   When you get a quote from another agency, it is important that you confirm that theft coverage is not excluded. Of course, you will need to review all of the coverages to confirm that you have an understanding of what you are buying and you should never assume that something is specifically covered. Taking the time to review your quote, the terms and conditions, the exclusions, and all of the parts of your policy is important.

What if I need an additional insured added with a certificate?


Most of the concessionaire insurance quotes and food truck quotes that we provide include blanket additional insureds. This is a valuable option that you should not overlook This means that you can add an additional insured for no extra charge when it is required by a written contract. For example, if you work at a swap meet, you may need to add the swap meet owner as an additional insured, per the contract. In this case, you would just contact the team at Stratum Insurance Agency, forward the contract showing that the wording is required and they can make you a certificate. Keep your contracts from the people requiring your certificates so that you can send them. If your additional insured requires special wording, there may be a charge from the carrier, but this is not often required.

It is important to work with an insurance agency that understands the needs of your industry. Many insurance agents sell insurance for more traditional restaurants and food services. Insurance policies can be tailored to your needs, so make sure to present all of the aspects of your business to your agent so that he or she can find you the proper policy for your needs.Stratum Insurance Agency LLC is licensed to sell insurance in over 41 states and has a passion for unique industries, such as mobile businesses.
