Case Study: World-Renowned Clothing Retailer achieves rapid shift to producing life-saving N95 masks with TealBook

How a world-renowned clothing retailer went from high-end fashion to producing life-saving N95 masks almost overnight

World-Renowned Clothing Retailer faced an urgent supply-chain challenge during the first COVID-19 wave: they needed to pivot from high-end apparel to producing certified N95 masks but lacked suppliers for materials like melt-blown polypropylene and the expertise to certify finished masks. To solve this, they turned to TealBook, using TealBook’s powerful supplier data along with product isolation and certification validation capabilities.

TealBook delivered curated lists of viable suppliers and testing facilities and validated certifications to eliminate fraud, enabling the retailer to shift production lines in weeks. As a result, the World-Renowned Clothing Retailer produced up to 150,000 N95 masks per day, certified all output, avoided fraud, made national headlines, and helped save thousands of lives — all enabled by TealBook.
