Logistics insurance is protection for goods as they move through the supply chain. It covers items while they’re being shipped, stored, or transferred between different stages of delivery. If something unexpected happens—like damage, theft, an accident, or a delay—the insurance helps reduce financial loss.
Unlike general property or vehicle insurance, this type of policy is designed specifically for cargo. It can apply whether products are moving by truck, train, ship, or plane, and often includes coverage while they’re in warehouses too.
In simple terms, logistics insurance helps businesses and customers feel secure knowing their products are financially protected until they reach their final destination.
