Make More Money With These 30 Pandemic-Proof Businesses
One of the greatest challenges distributors continue to face is their clients being affected by shutdowns, shopping restrictions and stay-at-home orders. You can avoid this by working with essential businesses that remain open, even during COVID-19-related closings. How? Provide them with the one product they all need: branded bar stools! Prepare to fulfill orders for this profitable product category by targeting these pandemic-proof industries with products that are useful and made in the USA.
Made in the USA: Better Quality Products, Fewer Risks
Even during challenging times, you can expand your business by working with domestic suppliers that are proven to deliver products on time, every time. Why take the risk? Richardson Seating, for example, is a 5-star supplier that manufactures all of their bar stools at their 75,000-square-foot factory in Chicago, IL. Not only does this mean you'll never have to worry about customs, inspections or overseas delays, it also means you can count on American-made quality with every order.
#1-10: Automotive
Even in areas with strict stay-at-home orders, the automotive industry remains open for business. Ever since an April update from the Homeland Security's Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, both automotive services and sales have been deemed essential. This is great news for promo professionals, as this sector encompasses a wide assortment of car dealerships, repair centers and auto parts stores.
These businesses need seating for visitors as they discuss logistics with technicians or sign paperwork, and branded bar stools fit that need perfectly. Be sure to highlight how easy bar stools are to sanitize, too. Unlike fabric upholstery that can hold on to germs, bar stools can be wiped clean with disinfectant to make them safe for the next guest.
