Our take

Globechain is a B2B reuse platform connecting corporates to SMEs and charities. The platform connects corporates who want to throw away items, with small businesses, charities and individuals interested in reusing - the corporates pay a fee to give items, while the beneficiaries can request and take those items for free.

The company has over 10,000 members and operates in the UK, New York, Spain and the UAE. Its clients include dozens of big brands such as Nandos, KFC, and H&M, and the platform is growing.

Globechain has diverted millions of kilograms from landfill, helping charities save millions and reaching over 14,000 communities within the UK, Africa, and Europe. Ultimately, Globechain wants to lead a new generation of businesses being 'commercial with a conscience', helping to enable corporates to achieve their sustainability goals at the same time as creating social value.
