We are pleased to report that TACO Seating is fully operational as of today, Monday, October 14, 2024, following the impact of Hurricane Milton. Our team members are safe, and for that, we are incredibly thankful.

The Seating Plant now has full power and water restoration, and despite personal challenges, the majority of our passionate team members came in to work today, driven by their commitment to serve you. This is a testament to our team's resilience and the strong partnership we have with our customers.

Hurricane Milton Oct. 11 Update: We are happy to report that all our TACO Seating team members are safe and accounted for. While our facility remains without power, we are pleased to report that our TACO Seating building did not sustain any damage, enabling us to resume operations in the near future. Our parent company, Patrick Industries, Inc., is sending generators that will enable us to reopen TACO Seating next week ahead of power restoration. However, because of the incredible work of the local officials and the linemen and women working around the clock, we are hopeful that power will be restored soon. Additionally, we are proud to report that because of the efforts of several team members from our Main Manufacturing & Central Distribution facility in Sparta, Tennessee, we were able to provide crucial supplies to our Florida-based team, most of whom do not have power or water at their home while recovery efforts are underway. During the supply distribution at our TACO Seating facility, we hosted a barbecue for our Florida team and their families, ensuring everyone had plenty to eat before heading back home. While there is a lot of work ahead for everyone impacted by Hurricane Milton, we are grateful for the small part we could play in ensuring the continued wellbeing of our team. #HurricaneMilton

October 10, 2024 Update: Our hearts are with all those impacted by Hurricane Milton. We are proud to support to our TACO Seating team with a truckload of supplies on the way from our Main Manufacturing & Central Distribution facility in Sparta, Tenn. Additionally, we have boots on the ground assessing our facility in Largo, Florida, and we'll have a comprehensive update for you tomorrow, Friday, Oct. 11. Until then, we encourage everyone impacted by the storm to exercise caution and heed the advice of local officials.

We wanted to inform you that TACO Seating’s facility in Largo, Florida will be closed Tuesday and Wednesday, October 8 and 9, because of the impact of Hurricane Milton. We plan to reassess the situation on Thursday, October 10, with the goal of reopening then or as soon as it is safe to do so. The safety of our employees and the security of our operations remain our top priorities during this time. Please rest assured that we are closely monitoring the situation and will keep you updated on any potential delays. In the meantime, our Main Manufacturing & Central Distribution facility in Sparta, Tennesssee is fully operational and not impacted by the storm. Sparta is prepared to assist Largo with any necessary support to help ensure a smooth recovery and minimize disruptions to your production schedule. Our team is working diligently with our vendors to reduce any potential delays, and we remain focused on recovering quickly and efficiently. Your understanding and support are greatly appreciated. As always, TACO Metals is committed to providing the high level of service you expect, and we will keep you informed as the situation develops.
