After being told that our previous  insurance company could no longer cover our ISR insurance on our building & cool stores built in the 1980’s due to panelling and spray on foam, we set about finding new insurance.

We were not aware of the stress and dramas this was about to cause.  After contacting several insurance companies and brokers over a 3 month period, we were unsuccessful in gaining  coverage as no one wanted to cover the risk. We actually thought we might have to close our business down as the risk  was too high, especially with company bank loans, we couldn’t continue if our asset wasn’t  covered, if there was to be a fire.

As our deadline was getting closer, and without any luck, in desperation we contacted Richelle at APAL Australia to see if they knew of any insurance Companies that dealt with our industry. This is when we were told to contact AB Phillips.  The guys at AB Phillips were so helpful and easy to get along with, and after working with us for a few short weeks, they successfully managed to gain insurance for every part of our business.  They were so professional with their work manner, and at a time when things were causing us much anxiety, they were always there to talk on the phone or answer emails.  Nothing was too much trouble.

I can’t speak highly enough of AB Phillips’ friendly and professional manner, as they went above and beyond to help our 3rd generation orchard secure insurance and continue to do what we love, growing apples.

I highly recommend contacting AB Phillips for all your insurance needs.
