Amarillo, Texas is the economic center of the Texas Panhandle region. The city’s economic influence also extends into eastern New Mexico and the Oklahoma panhandle. Originally the area was associated with large ranches, some of which are still in operation. Meat-packing, agriculture, technology, and even helicopter assembly are important industries in the Amarillo area today. The city aggressively works to attract new large and small business. It funds incentives with a portion of the city sales tax. Old and new businesses in the area will need to find the right Amarillo, TX business insurance.

Common Amarillo Business Insurance Issues
Some of the most common concerns among business owners in Amarillo include:
- Property damage from fire, windstorms, hail damage, accidents, and vandalism
- General liability including injuries, negligence, medical expenses, libel, malpractice, slander, lawsuit defense, judgments, and more
- Professional liability, also termed “errors and omissions”
- Fraud, embezzlement, extortion, or theft
- Cybercrime and data loss
Some companies may want to purchase these separately to supplement current coverage. Other small businesses prefer to start fresh with a package of insurance as part of a complete business owner’s policy (BOP). Another area of concern for businesses is supplementing income in the event the business must temporarily close. Business interruption insurance has saved many businesses from complete liquidation.

Amarillo Business Insurance Costs
No two Amarillo companies will have the exact same concerns and needs. The type of business, company size, and many other factors will affect commercial insurance rates. The United States Small Business Administration (SBA) advises each business owner or manager to compare different plans and products in the local area. Before comparing commercial policy prices, it makes sense to evaluate and discuss any unique business needs.

A local doctor’s office will probably have professional liability insurance (malpractice) near the top of their insurance agenda.

Business insurance is constantly evolving, and working with a professional that is current with the latest changes can be very beneficial.
