Finding buyers for unsold stock

The platform matches brands and distributors with retailers seeking discounted merchandise. Its pricing and negotiation software helps arrange transactions, giving sellers a route to recover value from excess inventory.

Financing inventory purchases

A planned credit feature addresses a second constraint: smaller retailers may find suitable stock but lack the cash to buy it. The company intends to combine access to surplus goods with funding for those purchases.

Where the funding goes

  • Launch financing for small merchants buying inventory
