The Founder
Today we’re thrilled to have Konrad Hosemann (https://www.linkedin.com/in/konrad-hosemann/) as our guest. He’s the co-founder and CTO of the recommerce startup reverse.supply (https://www.reverse.supply/), a company he formed to help bridge the gap between buyers and sellers of clothing, on behalf of brands. Previously, Konrad was Lead Developer at ImmobilienScout24, Head of Engineering at insurtech FRI:DAY, and Principal Developer at Solarisbank; his career is marked by long-standing success in the engineering sector. We can’t wait to discuss what Konrad has achieved thus far as the founder of reverse.supply!
The Startup
Reverse.supply (https://www.reverse.supply/) is not only a SaaS startup. The company runs a large logistic center in Berlin, where they accept delivery of clothing for their clients. There they grade the received items. They add it to the online shop of the fashion brand and store the 2nd hand items to be sold yet again. They do this for several companies. Their disclosed clients include Globetrotter, Armed Angels, Bergzeit, and many more.
Currently, many processes are manual and the startup is working on the automation and scalability of these processes.
Reverse.supply is the winner of the German EcoDesign Award category “Service”.
