<pre>I am trying to get product liability insurance for olive oil that I am
selling in the UK from my grove in Italy. The insurers want to know what
international/European Union/British standards we adhere to.



We are in the process of becoming certified organic (so we have a friendly
inspector whom visits), but other than that we don't have any analysis or
outside quality control. We can obviously have our oil analysed to make sure
that it is extra virgin but I can't see what this has to do with the safety
of it (though I may be wrong). Can anyone offer me any advice?



We are also making olive oil soap and I wonder if anyone has any experience
of getting product liability insurance for that?



Thanks in advance,



Jason Gibb

Your commercial insurance agent should check with their underwriter for
any requirements. Your general business liability insurance should
cover you. This is not a legal advice. You should consult with your
agent and legal council.
