Specialty Fabrics Review August 2019 - 42

A

lthough extreme
events such as fires,
floods, hurricanes and
other disasters were once
considered rarities, they are
becoming more common.
Business owners need to ask
themselves how they would
survive such an ordeal-
and what they need to do to
prepare for the possibility.

Marco Canvas and Upholstery LLC, in
Marco Island, Fla., took a direct hit in
2017 from Hurricane Irma, the most
damaging storm ever to hit the state.
The shop sustained major damage,
but preparations-such as covering
equipment-helped ensure that
a bad situation wasn't any worse.

"Don't think it can't happen to you," says
Randi Kaplan, owner of Kaplan's, an awning
shop in Easton, Penn., that was flooded
three times over a two-year period when it
was located near the Delaware River.
"It's a nightmare," says Ed Skrzynski,
owner of Marco Canvas and Upholstery
LLC, in Marco Island, Fla. And he should
know. In 2017, Skrzynski's shop took a
direct hit from Hurricane Irma, the most
damaging storm ever to hit the state.
According to Skrzynski, Kaplan and
other business owners who have been
through disasters, it's not necessarily what
you do after a disaster that's most important
to your future; it's what you do before that
determines the survival of your business.
"What you do in preparation is basically
going to determine whether or not you're
going to get back open at all," says Skrzynski.
Here, in their own words, are the
stories of four fabricators who have been
through disasters. Their stories, as well
as the tips from disaster experts in these
pages, can help you prepare for and
recover from disasters.
