Surplus food, drink
and FMCG is all
we trade.
We help businesses across food, drink and FMCG recover value from surplus, short-dated and best-before-expired stock. Selling a load or sourcing one, you deal with the same desk and the same people.
Redistributing stock across the UK, Ireland and Europe recovers revenue for the seller and keeps usable product out of landfill. Both of those happen on the same deal, which is the whole reason the desk works.
- Trusted by suppliers and retailers across the UK, Ireland and Europe
- A straight answer on every load, whether we can move it or not
- Built to cut waste and keep good products affordable

and sixteen more.
We buy, sell and collect across the UK, Ireland and 16 markets in mainland Europe. Every market below is one the desk trades in today, not a region we could reach in principle.
We buy the stock.
That is the model.
No listings, no bidding and nothing sold on your behalf. We take the load off your hands, pay for it, and move it out through a trade buyer network. Four things follow from that, and between them they explain most of what the desk does.
We buy outright, not on your behalf.
One counterparty and one written offer, rather than a listing that has to go and find its own buyer.
This is not a marketplace and it is not an auction. You send a list, we price it against live buyer demand, and the offer comes back in writing with no obligation attached to it. There are no listing fees and no waiting on bids to come in.
What you give up is the marginal upside an auction might have found, and that trade is the point. The number in front of you is the number, and once it is accepted, getting the stock off your yard is our job rather than another project for your team.
Three desks, one buyer network.
Sellers, buyers and finders all trade with the same desk and the same people.
On the sell side that is manufacturers, brand owners, distributors, retailers and 3PLs with stock they need gone. On the buy side it is discount retailers, wholesalers, exporters and online sellers, taking brand-name food, drink and FMCG by the pallet.
Independent finders sit alongside both: pass surplus stock to the desk and the fee is agreed before the offer goes out, built into the price the seller sees. Three desks, but one trade seen from three directions, which is why the side you come in on does not change who you deal with.
Where the stock goes decides what it is worth.
Stock is matched to vetted buyers whose channel does not collide with the seller's own full-price market.
Redistribution runs through discount retailers, wholesalers, exporters and online sellers across the UK, Ireland and 16 further European markets. It is channel-controlled by design, so a clearance load does not turn up beside the same product at full price, and the resale can be discreet or unbranded where a brand needs protecting.
Pricing follows from that rather than from a book formula. Category specialists check what those buyers are paying for comparable lines that week, net of the cost of moving the load, and that is the number the offer carries.
The margin is in the waste we remove.
Sellers recover cash instead of paying disposal fees, and buyers get brands they know at clearance prices.
The margin sits in the waste taken out of the system rather than in either side of the deal, which is what makes zero landfill a commercial position instead of a slogan. Goods are redistributed for consumption first, edge cases route to animal feed or anaerobic digestion, and every load's tonnage is logged, so the figures are there for CSR and ESG reporting.
It also decides who gets first look at a load. Discount retailers, community pantries, social enterprises and charitable redistributors are offered the stock that fits what they do.

Brokerage you can
put in an audit.
Surplus only works when both sides can trust what's on the pallet. Every load through the desk moves on the same four disciplines.
Traceability on every load
Batch codes, date codes and origin travel with the stock from your manifest to the buyer's goods-in. If a line can't be traced, it isn't traded.
Date-code discipline
Best-before is a quality marker and legal to sell past; use-by is a safety line we never cross. UK food law, applied to every line, every time.
Channel-controlled resale
Stock is matched to vetted buyers whose channel doesn't collide with the seller's full-price market. Discreet, NDA-backed where the brand needs it.
Zero landfill, evidenced
Goods are redistributed for consumption first; edge cases route to animal feed or anaerobic digestion, never the tip. Tonnage diverted is reportable for your ESG numbers.
Straight answers
about the model.
What happens to the stock, who ends up with it, and how fast the loop closes. The honest version, in writing.
What actually happens to the stock you buy?
It re-enters the market through vetted discount retailers, wholesalers and exporters across the UK, Ireland and Europe. Nothing goes to landfill; edge cases route to animal feed or anaerobic digestion.
Are you a marketplace or an auction?
Neither. We're a broker that buys outright: one written offer, one counterparty, no listing fees, no waiting for bids. You trade certainty for the marginal upside of an auction, which is the point.
Who do you work with?
Manufacturers, brand owners, distributors, retailers and 3PLs on the sell side; discounters, wholesalers, exporters and online sellers on the buy side; and independent finders who refer stock for a fee.
Which areas do you cover?
Collection across the UK and Ireland, with redistribution into 16 further European markets. The desk sits in Cardiff; the logistics network does the travelling.
How quickly does a deal move?
Stock list to written offer inside 24 hours, collection typically within the week, payment on pickup. Urgent date-driven clearances move faster still.
Is the sustainability claim measurable?
Yes. Every load's tonnage is logged, and sellers get the figures for CSR and ESG reporting. Waste diverted from landfill is the metric the whole model runs on.
Seen how it works?
Put it to work.
Sell surplus, buy clearance or refer a find. Whichever desk you need, send what you have and a person who can price stock replies within the day.
