  • Co-investor and CEO at Bepoc
    Feb 2023 - Present · 3 yrs 6 mos

    Bepoc: Be part of Circularity. For retailers, online merchants, consumer electronics brands, and marketplaces, returns, trade-ins, and overstock are an unavoidable reality. Yet for most organisations, they remain a black box: treated as a cost, managed reactively, and leaving significant value on the table. Bepoc changes that. We manage your entire reverse flow, from intake and AI-assisted grading to multi-channel resell and financial settlement, and turn it into measurable revenue. Purpose-built for the consumer electronics sector, our platform gives you full transparency over recovery rates, sell-through, and CO₂ savings, all in one dashboard. Whether you're a retailer looking to recover margin, a brand protecting pricing architecture, or a marketplace scaling trade-in without operational overhead, Bepoc closes the loop. Trusted by retailers, brands, and operators across the EU. Curious? Visit www.bepoc.eu
