a) Do your organizations require such insurance?
b) What rate do you normally pay per year? I do about 25 markets per year.

Thanks
I work for a local flea market providing security and there are several fruit and vegatable vendors. We do not require anything from the vendors. We will stop vendors from renting space if there are known law violations such as selling counterfeit merchandise. It is up to them to comply with all federal, state and local laws, ordinances and codes. The state will occasionally send inspectors to the market to verify compliance of the vendors but not the market.

AS ALWAYS IMHO AND YOUR MILEAGE MAY DIFFER!!!!!!!!

Life - Some assembly required, As is no warranty, Batteries not included, Instructions shipped separately and are frequently wrong!

Kentucky Bourbon - It may not solve the problem but it helps to make it tolerable!

Statistics - Data that analyst twist to support the insane opinions of those that pay them.
