Circular Type

Circular Logistics
Reuse & Refill Logistics
The platform organises collection, drop points, washing partners and redistribution across retail/on‑trade/online channels - fitting the 'Circular Logistics' category and specifically 'Reuse & Refill Logistics'. [Source: CLUBZERØ website]

R Strategy

R3 - Reuse, R1 - Rethink
Primary: R3 (Reuse) - the service explicitly manages reusable packaging lifecycles. Secondary: R1 (Rethink) - access/return models and sharing of reusable assets are core to the platform. [Source: CLUBZERØ website]

Sector

Retail & Consumer Goods
Website and press repeatedly describe CLUBZERØ as a reuse system for food & beverage, serving restaurants, retailers and online platforms (on-trade, retail, online). External profiles (PitchBook, Companies House) corroborate the F&B/retail positioning. [Source: CLUBZERØ website, PitchBook, Companies House]

Geographical Reach

International
United Kingdom
Website states CLUBZERØ has served brands across the UK, U.S., Singapore and UAE and describes global deployments and regulatory compliance work. [Source: CLUBZERØ website]

Hardware Component

None
The platform uses identifiers (QR, RFID, barcodes) and integrates with drop‑points/DRS machines but the website does not clearly state CLUBZERØ supplies or operates specialised hardware. We therefore classify hardwareComponent as False (software-led system). Note: compatibility with external hardware is documented. [Source: CLUBZERØ website]
