RT Specialty New Administrator for Gen Star Diet Supplement Program

R-T Specialty has been appointed as the exclusive administrator for General Star’s NutraAdvantage program.

NutraAdvantage offers specialty liability coverage for natural and organic supplements manufacturers, wholesalers, distributors, multi-level marketers, importers and exporters of both raw and finished products.

The program is available on a non-admitted basis in all states and is underwritten by General Star Indemnity Co. or General Star National Insurance Co. Both companies are currently rated A++ (Superior) by A.M.Best Co. and to date carry an AA+ Insurance Financial Strength Rating from Standard & Poor’s.

“Moving to an exclusive distribution and enhancing our program features is the latest evolution of the General Star program,” says Patricia Roberts, president and CEO of General Star Indemnity Insurance Co.

The NutraAdvantage program offers commercial general liability insurance as well as products liability, premises liability, vendors’ legal liability, employee benefits liability and legal defense costs. The NutraAdvantage Plus Endorsement provides protection for a variety of additional insureds, including primary and non-contributory coverage for vendors. It also offers products recall expense, professional and errors and omissions (E&O) coverage and waiver of subrogation.

The program has been endorsed by trade associations in the life sciences arena, including American Botanical Council (ABC), American Herbal Products (AHPA), United Natural Products Alliance (UNPA) and Natural Products Association (NPA).
