Does your business need PPE?
The Michigan Economic Development Corporation (MEDC) Pure Michigan Business Connect program has developed a portal specifically designed to support the PPE needs of Michigan businesses as they start the process of re-opening.
Through the free PMBC COVID-19 Procurement Platform, the PMBC team will work to connect those businesses in need of access to PPE – including face masks, face shields, gloves, goggles and other materials as necessary to ensure the health and safety of their employees and customers – with Michigan businesses that have supplier capacity to meet that demand. The online portal can be accessed at www.michiganbusiness.org/ppe. It is open to companies of all sizes and industries and is available for all scales of PPE demand.
