Marine Cargo & Stock Throughput

Admitted marine insurance coverage for goods in transit and goods in storage.
Cargo Ship

Does your Insured’s business import or export finished products?  Do they source raw materials or distribute/sell manufactured goods overseas?  Do they also warehouse goods in storage locations?  If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, Marine Cargo insurance should be considered an integral component of your client’s business stability strategy.  

Trillions of dollars of goods and merchandise are shipped around the world each year, resulting in high-risk cargo exposures.

These risks can affect many industries, including manufacturing, distribution, healthcare, energy, construction and technology.  Marine Cargo and Stock Throughput insurance covers physical loss or damage to goods while in transit and while in storage from the point of origin to the final destination.

Amwins Program Underwriters is dedicated to providing expertly crafted Marine Cargo & Stock Throughput insurance to a variety of industries.
