As a Transport Owner or Operator in Nigeria, GIT insurance is your life jacket in the event of damaged or lost freight being transported. Your profitability and growth rate will depend on how much cover against theft, loss or accidents whilst in transit you are able to secure.
The transportation of goods from manufacturers to distributors and finally to consumers is an important factor in commerce, buying, and selling today. However, there are also risks involved like theft, delivery delay, and accident of the delivery vehicle in this supply network.
These risks, though unforeseen, can disturb the smooth transit of your goods and result in significant financial losses for businesses. In response to these challenges, Goods in Transit (GIT) insurance is usually taken as a protective measure in the Nigerian market.
Let's discuss what Goods in transit insurance is, the types of goods covered by GIT in Nigeria, top GIT insurance solutions in Nigeria, and how to identify a good GIT insurance policy.
GIT insurance is a type of insurance coverage that protects a seller's goods while they are being transported from the seller to the buyer either through road, sea, air, or railways. As a seller or business owner, you must be careful when transporting goods, especially considering the state of Nigerian roads. GIT insurance is helpful and important.
In the event of loss or damage to the insured goods during transit, you, the policyholder, can file a claim with the insurance provider to recover the financial losses incurred. The insurance company will evaluate the claim and provide compensation based on the terms and conditions of the policy.
