Back to Barter: A Solution for Struggling Paint and Coatings Companies

Back to Barter: A Solution for Struggling Paint and Coatings Companies - Paint & Coating Industry

IMS Barter

Everything old is new again. As the paint and coatings business struggles as a result of COVID-19, the oldest form of trade - barter - is booming. However, this is not your father’s direct trade barter model. And that makes it even more appealing to cash-strapped businesses now.

Business-to-business trading has been providing an alternative method of payment that conserves cash, attracts new customers and gives businesses a competitive advantage.

What people say

"“Working with IMS Barter, I enjoy purchasing items that are close outs or discontinued items that I can donate to the homeless or semi-homeless. Most recently I made a purchase of 40 specially priced polo shirts that I donated. I also purchased a nice amount of close out toys for donation. Barter allows me to not only sell my jewelry, advertising, and piano lessons on trade, but it allows me the opportunity to give to charities. I am always looking for items from other Brokers.”"
