Manufacturer excess stock: a community organisation project

The problem. Excess stock is written off. Who it helps. A charity or community organisation delivering it, helping op shops, small manufacturers and community groups with surplus to share. What you start with. Excess stock from a small manufacturer. What is delivered. Stock is repurposed into new products by local makers. Your organisation leads delivery with support from the Deals Colony team. How progress is known. Stock lots reused are counted. A short summary is shared with your board or members, with names and personal details left out. Main purpose. The main purpose is access to a useful product or service, or less waste going to landfill, for the community. Honest limits. The manufacturer decides what can be passed on. Items are described accurately, in line with Australian consumer law, and custom made or refurbished items are disclosed. Ownership of your idea stays with you, and no job, funding or contract is promised. Track record. This is a new idea built on work Deals Colony has already documented. It has not been run yet.
