Business Owners Policy (BOP) in Mississippi

The smart starting point for most small Mississippi businesses. A BOP bundles property and general liability into one affordable policy — simpler, often cheaper than buying coverage separately.

What a BOP covers

A Business Owners Policy is designed specifically for small to mid-size businesses. It combines two essential coverages into a single, streamlined policy.

Commercial property insurance

Covers your building (if you own it), business personal property, and equipment against fire, storm, vandalism, and certain other losses. In Mississippi, storm and wind coverage is especially important.

General liability insurance

Protects your business if a customer is injured on your property, if your work causes property damage, or if you face a personal injury claim like libel or slander.

Business interruption insurance

Most BOPs include coverage for lost income if your business has to temporarily close due to a covered loss — like a fire or major storm damage.

Who qualifies for a BOP?

BOPs are designed for small to mid-size businesses with physical locations, fewer than 100 employees, and annual revenue typically under $5 million. Many industries qualify — retail, restaurants, professional offices, service businesses, and more.

Building & property

Covers your physical location, equipment, and inventory.

General liability

Covers bodily injury and property damage claims from third parties.

Business interruption

Replaces lost income if a covered loss forces you to temporarily close.

Optional add-ons

Data breach, equipment breakdown, hired/non-owned auto, and more.

Do I need workers comp in addition to a BOP?
Yes. Workers comp is a separate policy required by Mississippi law if you have employees. A BOP does not include it.
What does a BOP not cover?
Professional liability (E&O), commercial auto, workers comp, and flood are not included in a standard BOP. We'll let you know if you need any of these add-ons.
