Indian River Consulting Group’s (IRCG) weekly Pandemic Revenue Index for the work week of Nov. 23 to Nov. 27 indicated a 4.3% increase compared with the same week a year ago.

Of the 13 respondents, eight reported increases, according to IRCG.

“Not sure if it was the short week, but last week saw the biggest reported variance in sales growth since July,” said Mike Emerson, IRCG partner. “Eight respondents reported increases with half of them well above 20%. Of the five companies reporting declines, the largest was greater than 50%, which hasn’t occurred since April.”

IRCG’s distributor Pandemic Revenue Index gives distributors a weekly quantified view into how other distributors in the industry are faring as the global COVID-19 pandemic progresses.
