What You Need to Know About Cannabis Insurance in Oregon
Standard Policies Exclude Cannabis
Most standard commercial insurance policies exclude cannabis operations due to federal classification. You must work with specialty carriers that specifically underwrite cannabis risks.
OLCC Requires Insurance
Oregon's OLCC requires licensed cannabis businesses to maintain certain insurance coverages as a condition of licensure. We ensure your policy meets all OLCC requirements.
Product Liability Is Critical
Cannabis product liability claims can be substantial. From contamination to mislabeling, product liability coverage protects your business from claims arising from the products you sell.
