“Around 450 stores are within the path of this storm,” said Don Frieson, executive vice president of supply chain, “so we are critically looking at every store to understand what they might need, the quantities they may need and how soon we need to get it there.”
- Lowe's has 10 Emergency Response Teams (ERT) ready to deploy to impacted areas. Each team is made up of associates who are specially trained and voluntarily leave their home stores to serve at stores affected by the storms. They provide additional customer support and give fellow associates impacted by the hurricane a chance to focus on their families. ERTs will be deployed from stores outside the potential impact areas to support those hardest hit by Hurricane Laura.
