For many independent retailers, rebuilding isn't as simple as filing an insurance claim.

Patrick shares what recovery has looked like for retailers in Asheville, North Carolina, and Texas Hill Country, why insurance may not cover everything a business owner loses, and how the wholesale community can play a vital role in helping independent retailers get back on their feet.

| 9/25/26 | Five Minute Friday: 5 Reasons to Take Photos at Market | Are you taking enough photos when you shop at market? Jacob from FAVES breaks down the 5 reasons boutique owners should take photos at market — and why documenting what you see and buy can make a huge difference long after you leave the showroom. 5 Reasons to Take Photos at Market: 1. Remember What You Bought - (Keep a visual reference of the products, styles, and details you selected.) 2. Avoid Duplicate Styles - (Compare what you've already purchased so you don't accidentally buy two pieces that are too similar.) 3. Curate Your Merchandise - (See how different pieces work together and build cohesive color stories and collections before they arrive at your store.) 4. Preview Products to Your Customers - (Use your market photos to start creating excitement around new arrivals and give customers a preview of what's coming.) 5. Educate Your Team - (Capture important product details like fabrics, buttons, pockets, lining, colors, care instructions, and other features your team needs to know.)
