Catering insurance and catering liability insurance are a must for catering companies to ensure business insurance protection against the unthinkable.  Food safety must be  priority #1 for all caterers.  Insurance for catering business can be obtained by your regular company business insurance provider or through special event insurance companies.

Be sure to get several quotes for business insurance to make sure that you are getting the best coverage and pricing.

Using an approved HACCP Plan (Hazard Analysis of Critical Control Points) can help to ensure that at every step in the handling process that food has been monitored correctly, held at the correct temperature and is of the highest safety level.  Regulations vary by governmental jurisdiction.  Consult with your local sanitarian, public health official and legal council for more specifics to your own operation.
