Beazley, a specialist insurer, has announced the launch of its nutraceutical-focused insurance solution, NutraGuard, in Canada.
NutraGuard offers insurance solutions tailored to the needs of nutraceutical manufacturers and distributors.
It also offers flexibility to cover products liability, general liability, errors and omissions (E&O), product recall expense, employee benefits liability and hired/non-owned auto insurance.
Firms operating at any point in the nutraceutical value chain such as ingredient producers, product manufacturers, and wholesale/retail distributors, can opt for coverage from NutraGuard.
Beazley noted that it launched NutraGuard in the US seven years ago, which gave it a substantial understanding of the nutraceutical market.
Beazley healthcare underwriter Derek Dow said: “With the Canadian nutraceuticals market expected to witness a growth rate of over 5% by 2024, we see a gap within the insurance market for a policy tailored to the precise needs of this burgeoning market.
