Summer presents a valuable opportunity to connect with insureds about proactive risk management. As warmer weather brings a surge in outdoor activity across many industries, it also introduces unique exposures that businesses must be prepared to handle. Increased foot traffic, expanded outdoor operations, and seasonal events can all create both new opportunities and added risk.

This is especially true for restaurants and food vendors, many of which experience their busiest months during the summer. Outdoor dining expands, catering at community events increases, and food trucks ramp up their schedules to meet demand at festivals, parks, and private gatherings. With this uptick in activity comes an increased need for clear safety practices and thoughtful risk planning.

To support your clients through the season, point them toward the following resources designed to help them mitigate common summer risks:

In addition, remind insureds that all USLI policyholders have free access to our Business Resource Center — your go-to destination for time-saving, cost-cutting business tools.

A proactive approach today can lead to a safer, more profitable season for your clients. Position yourself as a trusted insurance professional and equip them with the right tools and guidance for success.
