An oufit called Kooomo has launched the MerCovid19.cat website with the aim, in the first instance, of distributiing protective equipment to Catalonian companies,  thus minimising risks to their employees and allowing for greater productivity during the Covid-19 pandemic.

 It says the new platform - a full-stack, cloud-based SaaS eCommerce platform with an ecosystem of 200 integrated partners - is exclusively aimed at companies and corporations, allowing them to purchase everything from masks, thermometers and hand sanitizing gels, to protective suits and pulse oximeters. These are all preventive products that allow employees to work with greater peace of mind, reducing the risk of infection. 

Kooomo says it hopes the  MerCovid19.cat initiative will inspire other companies and public entities nationally and internationally - to work together on similar projects that may improve the economy of each community.

 According to Ciaran Bollard, CEO of Kooomo, “The whole team at Kooomo has gone above and beyond to be able to carry out this project - our quickest platform launch to date with a turnaround of just one week.  It is great to be able to give something back and protecting companies and employee's is a critical part of getting us all back to work and restoring some level of ‘normality’. We have reached out and offered the same service to both the Irish and UK governments and hope to work with them soon.”
