    From a pilot project to a scalable second-hand shop

    GLOBAL HOME FURNISHING COMPANY

    From a pilot project to a scalable second-hand shop

    The company wanted to develop its own sourcing channels for second-hand products and integrate the second-hand business into its existing stores. The challenge was to establish efficient workflows, test the business potential and ensure traceability throughout the entire reuse process.

    Solution

    Xvii conducted a business experiment to explore the possibilities:

    • Mapping of collection and reuse streams from consumers
    • Testing repair and upgrade options via a repair hub
    • Development of a digital tracking system from source to customer
    • Identification of business potential and implementation opportunities

    Real benefits

    Results

    This work laid the foundations for the company’s continued expansion of its second-hand business and strengthened the company’s position within the circular economy.
