Bankruptcy for supplier Renewd

Bankruptcy for refurbished supplier Renewd as well

This week, Dignitas Distribution BV, better known as Renewd, was declared bankrupt.

How did Renewd's bankruptcy come about?

Renewd focused on offering high-quality refurbished electronic devices such as smartphones, tablets, laptops and smartwatches. Their mission was to extend the lifespan of technical products to reduce the electronic waste mountain, supported by partnerships such as the one with WeForest for reforestation projects in Ethiopia. Despite their focus on sustainability and quality, Renewd could not escape the economic pressure in the refurbished electronics market. After a period of financial problems, Renewd was granted a moratorium, which eventually led to bankruptcy.
