Sales & Supply Chain

Financial risk is difficult to manage

Balancing the financial risks of just-in-time versus just-in-case inventory in the face of today’s supply chain disruptions, unpredictable consumer behaviour and volatile global business landscape is a near-impossible task. And when excess inventory piles up, it comes at a cost.

Procurement & Finance

Cost savings are hard to find

Once your assets start depreciating in value, you have to make a tough decision: sell at a loss to free up warehouse space, or risk not selling at all. But for every day that stock remains unsold, it’s another day you’re losing money and lacking efficiency.

Marketing

You need to maintain a competitive edge

Maintaining a competitive edge is one of the smartest things you can do to keep your business buoyant. In economic downturns, some flourish, while others fall behind. In our experience the companies that keep their media budgets intact during recessions are the ones to come out on top.

Ready to invest in the future of your business?

Corporate Trade can help future-proof your business.

Active International can help you uncover untapped value in your own products. Because sometimes the solution isn’t something new, but rather working smarter with what you already have.

If you’re ready to create new revenue streams and drive powerful efficiency while seizing the challenges of today, Corporate Trade could be for you.

How does it work?

“We can directly attribute a portion of our YOY sales increase to the work we’ve done with Active, and in turn, we’ve been able to further invest in our brand and top up our media spend across critical periods of the year.”

Managing Director, Bloom & Wild

Corporate Trade allows you to part-fund your media spend with cash alternatives. We start by determining where we can drive the greatest impact for you, and we then buy your excess or slow-moving inventory for up to three times the market value. This could be over-sourced seasonal retail stock, products with outdated packaging, or even unsold plane seats.

We then resell your products, on your terms, freeing you of the financial burden of write-down and profit squeeze. This means your bottom line is resilient to market volatility, you maintain a healthy cash flow, and you can still hit your sales targets. And because marketing spend is protected, you can explore new opportunities to invest in growth and focus on building a competitive advantage for the future.

Active International are trusted partners to global brands and household names, working with them to pioneer value creation in their depreciating assets to take their businesses to new heights

Build resilience now and prepare to thrive

When the future looks as unpredictable as it does, you need a contingency plan. Often, businesses wait until it’s too late—when they’re in survival mode, grappling with unsold inventory and spiralling costs. But as competitors cut back, it could be your opportunity to gain market share. Even if you don’t have the assets to trade right now, we can start working on your media plan and accrue until the time is right for you.

The market might be uncertain, but your business doesn’t have to be. If you act now, together we can build the resilience you need to start investing in a better tomorrow, today.
