Digital Marketplace Strives to “Reinvent Industrial Business” During Pandemic

Some companies are faring better than others during the coronavirus pandemic, and ecommerce B2B platform Reibus is one of them. “Nothing much happened in the last couple weeks of March and the first couple weeks of April, but since then we have been doing great. We’re well ahead of budget for the year despite COVID-19,” said Reibus founder and CEO John Armstrong.

The virus has forced many people to work from home. Reibus.com gives salespeople and buyers another way to interact with customers and suppliers. “If you are a salesman and you can’t travel, or a sourcing guy and your suppliers are not answering the phone, Reibus offers an alternative,” Armstrong said. “We think the COVID issue is helping the market adapt and change. That is a small silver lining.”
