Do florists need insurance?
Short answer: yes. It might not be mandatory according to the law where you live, but florists offer services that can be hugely important to your clients. Whether the product you are presenting is for a wedding, or for a small gift, your services offer a great deal of happiness to those you help.
As a retail business, you are still exposed to the potential threat of property damage or bodily injury and a consequential lawsuit – which could put you in the hole for thousands of dollars. Moreover, as a florist, you operate directly out of a physical location and so florist business insurance is a must to protect your property and continue operations.
How much does flower shop insurance cost?
Premiums for flower shop insurance are estimated to range between $496 to $779/year. You can be expected to pay anywhere in this range but, as no one business is the same, you will not be paying the same amount as the other florist shop down the street.
Your rates are determined by your individual circumstances and the type of business it is that you run. The following factors affect your insurance rates:
- Your claims history
- Your annual revenue
- What services you provide
- Your staff team (if any)
- Physical location
- Your coverage limits

What does florist business insurance cover?
At Bullfrog, we offer several core components of coverage as part of our insurance package for florists:
- CGL (Commercial General Liability)
- Property coverage
Your CGL insurance is a necessity for protecting your flower shop if a third party or client sues you for property damage or bodily injury. This coverage can protect you from legal expenses, settlement fees, judgement awards, and defense costs – no matter what the outcome of the claim is.
Property insurance protect your florist business’ physical location. This includes if its equipment or furniture was damaged or destroyed, so long as the damages were due to an insured peril, such as theft, vandalism, fire, and more.
For florist business insurance, Bullfrog offers the following levels of insurance:
- $2 million
- $3 million
- $4 million
- $5 million
How much coverage you need depends on your individual circumstances, such as the likelihood of a lawsuit, your revenue, the cost of a lawsuit, your employees, and your services.
For property coverage, there is two levels:
- $10,000
- $20,000
It is important that you assess the value of your property and choose an amount that is equal or greater to its replacement cost.
