Disaster Planning and Recovery

Expect the Unexpected
Prepare your business for disaster
Protecting your business, employees and customers during a time of crisis can make the difference between whether your business reopens its doors or not.

Nationwide Insurance® and the Small Business Administration (SBA) have partnered to make sure business owners like you are properly prepared for and better equipped to handle unexpected business disruptions.

Our free Disaster Planning Guide for Small Business (PDF) provides information small business owners need to develop an effective plan to protect customers and employees in the event of a disaster.

Nationwide offers a variety of insurance options to help cover the specific risks that may impact your business, including Business Property Insurance, Business Liability Coverage and Business Auto Coverage.

The SBA provides advice, disaster assistance and access to capital for small business owners.
