PPE Available Free For Small Businesses

Multiple questioners asked City Limits where small businesses could get personal protection equipment.

On May 6, the Indiana Economic Development Corporation launched a new marketplace for small businesses to request personal protection equipment (PPE).

The goal is to connect the state’s manufacturers that are now making PPE with the businesses that will be required to use it when they reopen. The PPE Marketplace, which is initially free of charge, will consist of bundles of PPE, based on the size of your business. These bundles include masks, face shields, one-gallon bottles and two-ounce bottles of hand sanitizer. At this time, only the bundles will be available on the marketplace

To qualify, a business or nonprofit organization must be registered to do business in Indiana, employ fewer than 150 people, be required to use PPE to comply with safety requirements, and fall into the categories of restaurants, retail sales, personal services, or offices.

Supplies are limited, and businesses should only use the marketplace if they can’t find PPE somewhere else. If a business can't get PPE from another source and it misses out on the initial distribution, IEDC will work with that business to get in on the next round of supplies.
