Why this class matters to Coterie

Women’s Clothing Stores ranks #59 on Coterie’s Top 100 classes list (December 2025), so this is a business type Coterie actively writes.

Typical risks

For women’s clothing boutiques, common claims include fitting-room trips, display tip-overs and wet floors at the door. Landlords usually require GL in the lease, and every shopper is a potential premises claim.

GL and BOP, explained

General liability covers third-party bodily injury, property damage and, for most classes, personal and advertising injury. Per-occurrence limits are $300K, $500K, $1M or $2M, with aggregates at twice that, and the policy includes medical payments and damage to rented premises.

A BOP protects inventory, fixtures and outdoor signs and adds business income if a covered loss closes the store. A business owner’s policy combines liability, property and business income in one policy.

Before you quote

Home-based and online sellers can qualify too. Across all classes, Coterie generally accepts up to $10M in revenue and 50 employees, one location per policy, no more than two losses in five years (none over $15K) and no prior cancellations or non-renewals. Home-based and newer businesses are welcome.
