About

Most products that could be reused, repaired, or refurbished end up in landfills — because no one built the infrastructure to keep them in circulation. I did. I'm Felix, founder and CEO of FLUXS — Germany's leading circular fulfillment provider for children's and mobility products. We manage the full product lifecycle for rent-commerce platforms and e-commerce brands: warehousing, shipping, quality inspection, refurbishment, repair, and re-circulation. Think strollers, car seats, bikes, cargo bikes, and outdoor gear — anything that deserves a second (and third) life. What we've built: → 40-person operation processing ~100,000 used item movements per year → Custom-built ERP extension for circular warehouse and inventory management → Trusted by leading brands including woom, StrollMe, Kiddly, Tildi and many more → Bootstrapped from zero to multi-million EUR revenue in under 3 years Before FLUXS, I spent 15+ years in product management, SaaS, and e-commerce operations — bootstrapping companies to €5M ARR, building teams of 40+, and leading departments managing €50M ARR across SaaS, payments, and digital commerce. What drives me today: using AI and automation to rethink how physical operations work. At FLUXS, we don't just talk about being "AI-native" — we build our own tools, automate our own processes, and treat technology as a core operational advantage, not a buzzword. I write about circular economy, reverse logistics, operational leadership, and building companies that run on systems — not heroics.
