About the Company

2020 Companies

Outsourced in-store sales, merchandising, events

2020 Companies provides outsourced field sales, merchandising, and brand activation services for retailers and brands. It supplies a trained workforce and management for in-store sales, promotions, and events, enabling clients to scale retail operations without hiring or managing their own teams. The service works by deploying trained staff to act as brand ambassadors, perform direct sales, merchandising, and promotional activities at the point of sale, and manage campaigns on behalf of clients. Its approach centers on people-first consumer engagement to drive sales and brand loyalty, differentiating itself through a scalable, turnkey workforce solution across multiple industries, rather than through product-based tech offerings. The company’s goal is to help clients increase at-retail presence, sales, and customer engagement by delivering consistent, hands-on retail experiences through outsourced teams.
