EASY ACCESS TO PPE FOR YOUR BUSINESS FROM ALASKA MEP
If you are in need of PPE, the Alaska Manufacturing Extension Partnership (MEP) Center is currently offering match-making services — free of cost — to connect businesses and health care providers with local PPE manufacturers. To make use of these services, please email Client Services Manager, Ms. Lewis. In the email please include the type(s) of PPE needed, the quantity, the timeline for delivery, and the price range. If you are unsure about any of those variables, please let us know and we can still connect you and let you work out the details with the PPE manufacturer directly. Please don't hesitate to reach out if we can aid you and your business at this time.
