In AZ, which Carriers Are Competitive at NEWLY OPENED Restaurants?

[sam816]

I have had a couple newly opened prospects lately but not been able to find a good carrier for the BOP. Travelers is too high and LM wants all kinds of docs. Does anyone know a good carrier for this? Also, does Farmers or Farmer Bureau take newly opened restaurants, if so, how competitive are they?

TIA.

Good Question. Curious what you find. All my avenues (Secura, Main Street, Acuity, State Auto) 3 year rule.

Would not be surprised at all to see Farmers take it with credits!

Good Luck.

I believe Pekin is trying to break into the AZ market. From what I've been told, they are killing it on rates and do write new ventures. We write Pekin here in IN and they are a great company to work. I recently wrote a restaurant here and they smoke Erie's rate, which is sometimes hard as it seems like Erie gives insurance away at times
