With the help of Archive, the technological platform that drives resale businesses, the Finnish athletic footwear manufacturer Karhu has started a US resale program. By reselling gently used or like-new returns that are sent straight from Karhu’s exclusive wholesale partner, the Karhu Renewed resale program aims to prolong the lives of Karhu goods.
Through the implementation of Archive’s unique Warehouse Management System (WMS) flow, Karhu will be able to optimise returns management while effectively tracking, processing, and reselling returned goods. This will open up a new revenue stream.
All of the resale items will be shipped straight to Tersus Solutions, Karhu’s official wholesale partner. Tersus Solutions provides a comprehensive range of textile reclamation and resale logistics services in addition to the most cutting-edge liquid CO2-based waterless cleaning technology in the world.
The shoes will be listed on the Karhu Renewed website after processing. The identical procedure will apply to returns made through Karhu’s direct-to-consumer (D2C) e-commerce, guaranteeing that every item is similarly cleaned, fixed when needed, and put up for sale.
