Insights to Help Your Business
Shipping perishables isn’t just about logistics. It’s about trust.
Whether you're shipping handcrafted chocolate, meal kits, a rare bottle of wine, or life-saving clinical samples, one thing is certain: if it doesn’t arrive fresh, you risk more than a refund, you risk your reputation.
And yet, many merchants still rely on carrier liability, which excludes perishables altogether. Even most shipping insurance providers won’t cover spoilage, corkage, or temperature-related damage.
Below, explore four real-world perishable shipping failures and how InsureShield® Shipping Insurance helped merchants protect their product, customer experience, and bottom line.
Let’s be blunt: Carrier liability is not insurance. It’s limited, slow, and typically caps at $100 per shipment, if it pays at all.
InsureShield Coverage fills the gap and adds speed, flexibility and branding that keeps your customer experience intact.
If the answer to any is no, it’s time to consider smarter protection.
InsureShield isn’t a one size fits all, it’s custom built. We’ll work with you to tailor your coverage by product, shipping mode, risk and more.
