The platform enables brands to sell returned/second‑hand products to consumers (valueObject=Products). It is provided as a managed retail/recommerce solution for brands (CircularRetailer). Matchmaking includes brands selling to consumers, often via brand channels (B2C) and brand→consumer flows through partner networks (B2B2C).
