Business Owners Policy (BOP) for Louisiana Small Businesses
One Policy, Big Protection-The BOP Advantage
A Business Owners Policy (BOP) combines the two most essential coverages for small businesses-General Liability and Commercial Property-into a single, convenient package. With a BOP, you get broad protection for the biggest risks you face, often at a lower premium than buying each policy separately. One policy, one premium, less hassle.
Core Coverages in a Business Owners Policy
General Liability
Covers customer injuries, property damage you cause, and legal defense if you're sued (think: a slip-and-fall in your shop).
Commercial Property
Pays to repair or replace your building (if you own it), equipment, inventory, and contents after a fire, theft, or storm-even if you rent your space.
Business Interruption
If a disaster forces you to close, this helps cover lost income and operating expenses until you're back in business.
Example: If a fire damages your boutique and you must close for a month, business interruption coverage can pay for lost profits and ongoing bills.
Build a Package That Fits Your Needs
Every business is different, and your BOP can be tailored to fit. Add-ons include:
Equipment Breakdown
Outdoor Sign Coverage
Employee Dishonesty
Spoilage (for food businesses)
And more
Some risks-like workers' compensation, commercial auto, or cyber liability-are separate policies, but we'll help you coordinate everything for seamless protection.
Save Money With a BOP Bundle
BOPs are package-priced for savings, often costing less than separate general liability and property policies. Many small offices or retail shops pay as little as $(225) 644-4440 per year for core coverage (your actual cost will depend on size, industry, and location).
BOP Insurance Questions-Answered
What is a BOP in insurance?
A Business Owners Policy is a bundle of general liability and property insurance-core coverages most small businesses need.
Do I qualify for a BOP?
If you have a physical location, under 100 employees, and less than $5 million in annual revenue, you probably do. We'll confirm your eligibility.
What's the difference between a BOP and general liability alone?
General liability covers lawsuits and accidents, but doesn't protect your building or contents. A BOP adds property and business interruption for more complete protection.
Can I customize my BOP?
Yes! We can add endorsements or separate policies to cover your unique exposures.
