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.

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.
