Overcart is the first brand in the country to enter the unboxed and refurbished products category with a great level of organization. The returns made to online retailers will have an impact on the profitability as the devices cannot be sold again via conventional channels. Such units will be piled up with retailers, distributors, and manufacturers and these will be liquidated in bulk for a very low realization. Overcart integrates these return processes and provides an ongoing liquidation service that will maximize the value by selling the devices directly to end users.
