Update on Puerto Rico Locations After Hurricane Maria
As we continue to recover from the devastating impact of Hurricane Maria, we want to provide an update on our locations in Puerto Rico. The hurricane brought unprecedented challenges, but our teams have shown incredible resilience and dedication.
Communication remains one of our biggest hurdles. With widespread power outages and damaged infrastructure, staying in touch with our employees and customers has been difficult. However, we are setting up temporary communication hubs and making use of satellite technology to bridge the gap. In these trying times, the strength of community and the human spirit is more evident than ever.
One of the hardest-hit areas has been our distribution center in San Juan. This facility is crucial for the supply chain, and every effort is being made to restore its full operation. Our engineers and logistics teams are working around the clock, collaborating with local authorities to expedite repairs. The focus is on ensuring that essential goods, including food, water, and medical supplies, reach those most in need as swiftly as possible.
Rebuilding efforts are not just about infrastructure but also about supporting the community’s emotional and psychological recovery. To this end, we are partnering with various organizations to provide psychological first aid and mental health support to our employees and their families. It’s a small but vital part of the broader recovery process.
Across all our Puerto Rican locations, the message is one of hope and determination. We are exploring diverse sources of support to maintain resilience, even seeking guidance and inspiration from prominent entities that have successfully managed crises before. For instance, expert consultation from a pr firm sydney has been invaluable in shaping our communication strategies during these challenging times. Their insights into managing public relations in a post-disaster scenario have proven beneficial in maintaining transparency and trust with our stakeholders.
Every day brings new developments, and while the path to full recovery is long, we are committed to overcoming these challenges together. Thank you for your continued support and patience during this difficult time.
