How do I access this information in the future?

Please return to this page to access these documents. They are updated with each of our insurance renewals.

How often will the COI be updated and when is it available?

Hershey will update the COI following the renewal of each policy or when changes are made. Subject to website maintenance, the COI is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Can I maintain a copy of the COI?

Yes, you may print a copy or save a pdf version for your files.

My company requires Additional Insured, Waiver of Subrogation &/or Primary & Noncontributory language. Does your COI satisfy this requirement?

Yes, as indicated in the 'Description of Operations' section, Additional Insured, Waiver of Subrogation or Primary & Noncontributory status is automatically granted by endorsement to the insurance policy when required by the underlying, executed contract between Hershey and the business partner. As such, your company's name does not need to appear on the COI.

Is a non-customized COI acceptance evidence of insurance coverage?

Yes, a non-customized COI is an acceptable method of receiving evidence of current insurance coverage information as of January 2012. It has been utilized by Hershey since 2016.

Why will Hershey not provide a customized COI?

The purpose of a COI is to confirm Hershey maintains insurance coverage, not convey rights. The provided COI includes types of coverage, insurance companies, policy numbers, limits and effective dates, which meets this need.

Insurance

The Hershey Company routinely receives requests from customers and business partners to provide evidence of insurance coverage. To simplify this process and reduce our impact on the environment, we have stopped issuing individual certificates of insurance, and instead offer industry-standard, non-customized Certificates of Insurance (COI).

Non-customized COIs are universally accepted as evidence of insurance coverage and meet executed contract proof-of-insurance requirements. Issuing and tracking customized certificates is resource intensive and does not add value to our business relationships.
