How is your business helping to solve the health, social, or economic challenges created by COVID19?
There is a massive national shortage of disinfectant across the country. We have tapped into a unique supply that promotes local business, and are looking to fill this demand-supply gap with a platform to connect distilleries producing sanitizer to at risk populations as soon as possible. Our target customers are nursing homes, daycares, and essential workers. Once we meet this demand, we will expand to reach every citizen that needs sanitizer to go about their life.
