PROJECT OVERVIEW:
Client: Air Products
Timeline: 30 Days
When a stable living environment isn’t available, you make one. That’s exactly what Target Logistics did after Hurricane Katrina struck New Orleans. In a matter of days, Target Logistics built a 700-person modular camp complete with running water, electricity and on-site kitchen facilities that fed workers four hot meals daily as well as a 24-hour snack and beverage service.
KEY CHALLENGES
No power. No drinking water. No source of supplies. Closed roads. Alligators. Snakes. Wild boar. Rioting.
THE EXTRA MILE
Our camp never closed, and we never missed a meal, even after a second Category 5 hurricane forced another evacuation of New Orleans following Katrina.
