Alpha Pro Tech is one of the few companies in the USA that produces face masks and protective gear against infections. In earlier reports The Golden Investor already emphasized that Alpha Pro Tech could see a surge in sales due to the COVID-19 outbreak, and unlike many other dubbed corona stocks Alpha Pro Tech actually sees an increase in revenue. The CEO of Alpha Pro Tech reported a huge increase in sales in the last two weeks. A further increase in production capacity will only further increase the number of sales coming weeks and months as the corona virus continues to spread. Alpha Pro Tech reported having a big backlog in orders as sales are continuously coming in everyday.
“Since January 27th, we have received orders for our proprietary N-95 Particulate Respirator face mask representing roughly 24 times the revenue that we have recorded from sales of this product for each year since 2016.”
