Our client operates eleven modern retail petrol stations and shops and has an annual turnover of £48m.
They have been trading with ourselves since 2001 and during this time we have dealt with more than forty claims for the insured. In 2003 the client was subject to various raids on the shop units from thieves targeting cigarettes and tobacco and during this time we worked closely with Insurers and the client to implement various security requirements which has resulted in a marked improvement in the loss history.
Following implementation of these risk management measures the client’s premium spend has been reducing year on year and is now approximately 35% less than in 2003.
We were appointed broker to this client in October 2005 after a competing exercise with the clients existing agent. Our savings on all classes totalled 36% of the clients annual premium spend with several areas of additional cover included within our proposals.
The client operates from their large Head office and warehouse trading in the wholesale optical and frame business.
They also operate nine retail optician outlets throughout the North West of England.
