Supermarket accidents can happen in many different ways. Here are some of the most frequent causes of injury:
Slips on Wet Floors
Spills, recently cleaned areas, or leaks without proper warning signs are a leading cause of supermarket slips.
Trips Over Obstacles
Items left in walkways, loose floor mats, or uneven surfaces can lead to serious trips and falls.
Falling Objects
Poorly stacked shelves or items placed too high can fall and cause head, neck, or back injuries.
Faulty Shopping Trolleys or Equipment
Broken trolleys, baskets, or malfunctioning automatic doors can cause unexpected accidents.
Injuries in Car Parks
Potholes, poor lighting, and lack of proper signage can make supermarket car parks just as hazardous.
Food or Packaging Hazards
Sharp or damaged packaging, foreign objects in food, or allergic reactions due to poor labelling can all lead to valid claims.
If your accident was caused by negligence, failure to carry out proper maintenance, or a lack of clear warning signs, you may be eligible to make a premises liability claim.
