Franchise Coverage
Done Right
Restaurant franchisees face two layers of insurance requirements — state and federal regulations PLUS the franchisor's specific insurance program. Subway, McDonald's, Domino's, Chick-fil-A, and other major franchisors require specific limits, Our restaurant insurance and franchises services ensure additional insured endorsements, and waiver of subrogation language that not every carrier provides. KTL writes franchise restaurant programs that meet franchisor requirements out of the gate, with same-day certificates to franchisor compliance teams.
