Sustainable Supply Chain Unboxing Sustainability: LiquiDonate's Impactful Approach to Excess Inventory
Hey everyone, in this episode of the Digital Supply Chain, we dive deep into the innovative world of sustainable returns and inventory management.
Ever wondered what happens to all those returned goods and excess inventory from retailers? Too often, they end up in landfills. But, Diz Petit and her platform, LiquiDonate, are changing the game. They're all about matching that surplus to nonprofits in need, creating a win-win scenario for both retailers and the community.
Diz shares the inspiring genesis of LiquiDonate, born from her early days at Postmates. We touch on the staggering statistic that 80% of returns end up in landfills, and how LiquiDonate is determined to reduce that number to zero.
We also discuss the fantastic tech behind LiquiDonate, their growth plans, and their mission to create the largest global database of nonprofits and schools. And for all the retailers out there, Diz has a special message about the multiple benefits of partnering with LiquiDonate, beyond just sustainability.
Tune in to learn about this unique solution in the retail landscape, blending tech, sustainability, and heart. A massive shoutout to Diz for joining me and for her relentless passion to make a difference.
