The U.S. government estimates that ~40 percent of small companies never reopen after a weather-related disaster, so how will the vulnerability of Houston area companies, 99 percent of which are considered small businesses, impact the global supply chain long-term? Moreover, will Hurricane Irma hitting the Southeast so close to Hurricane Harvey’s devastation make the outcome even worse?
As global weather events rankle major markets and disrupt the transportation of goods, Chloe Demrovsky, President and CEO of the Disaster Recovery Institute (DRI) International is available to speak with you or your team regarding:
