Note From Tim Andrews, ASI's President/CEO: Getting America and Promo Back to Business
It’s clear by nearly every metric – continued low interest rates, huge pent-up demand for travel and entertainment, “help wanted” signs all over America – that we are on the brink of perhaps the biggest economic expansion in decades.
With the masks starting to come off, Americans are leaping at the chance to get back to normal – and back to business. A critical component for success: Vaccinations. About 40% of the U.S. population is now fully vaccinated, according to the CDC.
Our industry entrepreneurs were the first in 2020 to spin to a totally unknown market and provide lifesaving PPE, leading even established providers of healthcare products and generating hundreds of millions of sales dollars that kept distributors and suppliers afloat and, in some cases, breaking their own revenue records.
