Europe’s leading sourcing show collaborates with SATCoL
Source Home & Gift at NEC Birmingham, in collaboration with the Salvation Army Trading Company Ltd (SATCoL), is the responsible sourcing show that puts the home and gift supply chain at the fingertips of eco-conscious UK buyers.
The collaboration between the trading arm of The Salvation Army provided an opportunity to showcase the charity’s recycling technology and partnering opportunities for brands and retailers to extend the useful life of their products.
Kirk Bradley, Head of Corporate Partnerships at SATCoL shared, “We were thrilled to be working with The Hyve Group on the Source Home & Gift show. It was our first time exhibiting at the fair and our panel discussion was a great opportunity to create awareness for our sustainable solutions for brands and retailers. We have several schemes that are available including Take Back and Corporate Donations, where we can receive excess, customer returns and faulty stock and help to divert items away from disposal.”
Kirk continued “The work we do helps to raise vital funds for The Salvation Army. We are part of a society that overconsumes in many areas. Our role in minimising the environmental impacts of products is to divert as much as possible away from disposal and lessen the burden of over production. Reusing and repurposing the items we receive is crucial to helping sustain our planet, one donation at a time.”
