Panda Express Improves Security for Its Associates, Customers and Assets with Interface Security
With more than 2,200 locations and 41,000 associates, Panda Express is America's largest family-owned and operated Asian dining concept.
Panda store managers faced continuous distractions from false alarms, receiving calls from the legacy alarm company at all hours of the night and incurring fines from local law enforcement for needless police dispatches.
"When an alarm went off overnight, our managers would always err on the side of caution, send police in, or go in themselves. That was dangerous in itself if there was actually a burglary happening inside the store," says Lyle Forcum, Executive Director of Asset Protection at Panda Restaurant Group, parent company of Panda Express. "Additionally, we were losing significant amounts of money on false alarm charges."

Customers, Staff Adjust To Strict Health Guidelines As LA County Bars Reopen – CBS Los
HERMOSA BEACH (CBSLA) — Friday night marked the first, and maybe happiest, happy hour around L.A. County in a while, as bars were able to reopen after three months shut down due to coronavirus.
On a pre-pandemic Friday night, the pier at Hermosa Beach would have been packed with people. Now, the crowds are much thinner — and, for most people, that’s just fine.
Except, it’s not exactly business as usual. Some hosts will be checking temperatures along with IDs before customers can come in for a cold one. Patrons will have to chat up their bar mates from a social distance and from behind a mask.
