Frontier Risk

Frontier Risk is an insurance provider focused on the cannabis industry, offering license-specific policies for cannabis and hemp operators. The company positions its offering around three engagement points: first coverage for newly licensed or newly insuring businesses, renewals, and policy reviews or audits of existing programs. Its stated capabilities include online quoting that sources terms from multiple insurance carriers, agents who specialize in explaining cannabis operations and risk profiles to underwriters, and a customer portal through which clients can manage policies, download certificates of insurance, and report claims. A dedicated support team is offered on a round-the-clock basis.

The company also handles claims advocacy on behalf of clients. Published case studies describe consolidating and streamlining policies for a multi-state THC and hemp beverage brand, securing full coverage on a fraudulent loss exceeding $200,000 while stabilizing the client's premiums, and conducting an insurance audit for a brand-only cannabis company that closed coverage gaps and added property protection at third-party locations. Frontier Risk has announced on-premise coverage for THC beverages, and publishes industry insight articles on topics such as hemp regulatory developments and dispensary licensing in states including Maryland and Virginia.
