Company Summary
The US wholesale market is a $500 billion industry. (U.S. Census Bureau CB13-184 Nov. 15, 2013 Release) This number reflects the wholesaling of durable and non-durable goods. The service industry, however, has never had the wholesale business model applied to it- until now. Priccut negotiates deals from service-based merchants and we market this “wholesale” or bulk service deal throughout the Priccut network. Also see http://www.angel.co/priccut
