Let's build a custom insurance solution

At BFL CANADA, we offer a range of coverage solutions designed to keep your food industry organization fully operational, especially in times of crisis, and that allows you to continue enjoying the fruits of your labour.

PRODUCT RECALL
CONTAMINATION
PRODUCT RECALL
CONTAMINATION

Covers the company in the event of accidental or criminal contamination and pays for withdrawal costs, losses caused by a recall, as well as operating losses and product rehabilitation costs declared by your company or by public authorities.

Whether such contamination or recall is caused by the abnormal development of a natural component, a dosage or design error, a safety defect, the presence of foreign substances, a change in food hygiene standards or laws, or whether the product is qualified as unfit or dangerous to health, this insurance protects you.

Given the large number of frozen deals and the scarcity of new processes on the market, buyers with available capital to implement will tap into their networks to find exclusive business opportunities.
