Returns are where margin is lost, not recovered.

Items sit in warehouses, cross borders multiple times, and lose value before they ever make it back to market. By the time they are processed, demand has often moved on.

Renow is built to compress that timeline.

Rather than centralising returns, Renow enables local inspection and global resale. Items are assessed where they are returned, then listed into the highest value market. This removes unnecessary logistics, reduces handling costs, and accelerates cash recovery.

Renow does not operate warehouses. It deploys into existing 3PL and logistics networks within days, turning existing operations into inspection and resale hubs with the intelligence to grade, price, list and resell globally.

This completely reshapes the economics of cross-border returns.

✅ Local inspection, global resale
Items are processed at the point of return, then sold into the strongest demand market

✅ AI-driven grading and pricing
Automated condition assessment feeds directly into resale and pricing decisions

✅ 3PL network enablement
Logistics partners move beyond handling returns to generating resale value

✅ Real-time inventory visibility
End-to-end tracking across intake, grading and multi-channel resale

There are no upfront costs or fixed fees. Renow operates on a revenue share basis, meaning value is only created when items are successfully resold.

For retailers, this means faster recovery and lower operational cost. For 3PLs, it creates a new layer of value added services within existing workflows.

Returns do not need to be a cost centre. With the right infrastructure, they become a revenue stream.

Renow is one example of how that shift is being built into existing operations.
