With healthcare facilities across the U.S. running low on supplies needed to help combat the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic, coming up with innovative ways to replenish supplies, including gowns and masks, is a must.
Michael Rubin, Fanatics Executive Chairman and Philadelphia 76ers Co-owner, recently did just that. Last week, Rubin says he “woke up in the middle of the night” when he came up with the idea to convert the Fanatics’ Philadelphia-based factory in Pennsylvania, which makes official Major League Baseball jerseys, into a facility that can help produce the much-needed personal protective equipment.
