Eoxs Disrupts How Manufacturing Buys Steel

by | Nov 10, 2021

Summary

Eoxs's Rajat Jain talks about his company finding whitespace in the steel industry.

Based in California, Eoxs’ Detroit warehouse already has 100,000 square feet of space with $20 million in inventory. While that may not sound like a lot for the gigantic manufacturing industry, this marketplace was created in 3 weeks.
