R Strategy

R3 - Reuse, R5 - Refurbish
Primary focus is on reuse/return-to-retail (R3). Evidence of processing hubs and getting stock 'back on sale faster' supports refurbishment/refurbish (R5) as secondary. Source: ReBound, 2025. Confidence medium because some secondary capabilities are described at a high level rather than with detailed process evidence.
