How Are We
HELPING?
When the COVID-19 pandemic struck the world, and in particular, our hometown of New York City, we realized we were in a unique position to help. As a B2B retail tech platform for customizable and made-to-order fashion & lifestyle brands, we had recently opened a showroom that doubles as a beautiful multi-use event space. Working with the NYCEDC, we took our manufacturing know-how and converted the CSTM HAUS event space into a facility for the production of medical face shields.
We are excited to announce that CONSORTIUM is now the the largest producer and provider of face shields to New York City medical responders. And to do it in our own beautiful event loft, complete with a private kitchen, where we can keep our team happy and safe as a family, makes this opportunity to serve our city that much more exciting.
