A dry cleaners is about as specific as businesses get, which is certainly something that is reflected in the type of insurance that is required to be adequately protected against the risks that can beset a dry cleaners.
An item of clothing, or any other artefact manufactured from fabric, is valuable by virtue of the fact that someone is paying to have it dry cleaned, irrespective of whether said value is sentimental or financial.
Therefore, a dry cleaners is constantly at risk of having to pay out for any item that gets damaged as a consequence of the dry cleaning process. This, though, is in no way the solitary risk that a dry cleaners faces.
A dry cleaners needs to be insured against the risk of a customer or a staff member being injured whilst on the premises. It is also necessary to be protected against any loss or damage to business property, inclusive of the building, be it through theft, vandalism, flood, fire or otherwise.
