WELCOME TO Trace’s Store School, hosted by Trace Menchaca of Flying M Pet Grocery in Houston, TX.

Her team was ready, though, with an emergency plan and procedures in place. Trace will talk about how to protect your staff, your structure and your stuff, in that order for not only destructive weather but also for man-made damage caused by crime.
