A Maine textiles factory pivoted to making face shields and gowns for hospitals. The owner says the marketplace is like 'an air traffic control tower with nobody in it' and the government needs to step in.

to treat patients, while his company has struggled to sort out basic supply-chain logistics such as how to get raw materials, and who he'll sell his products to.

The problem manufacturers like Waxman face is the lack of a centralized command-and-control structure in the US for these crises, according to Nick Vyas, an expert in supply chain management and a professor at the University of Southern California. That means that companies have been forced to decide who to sell to — either selling to the highest bidder, or, in some cases, trying to determine on their own who needs the goods the most.

Vyas said companies like American Roots and Flowfold are handling the situation exactly right, and companies in similar dilemmas should firstly ensure their products are built up to health and safety standards. Then, they should try to focus on local markets so they don't have to worry about complex transportation and supply-chain logistics.
