Co-founder and COO Avneet Singh also added, “ReFit Global’s trailblazing move into the digital space signals a paradigm shift, setting new standards in the Refurbished Industry. When we embarked on our journey with ReFit Global, the refurbished phone market lacked structure and was still in its nascent stages. However, we recognized the immense potential for growth and collaborated with our retail partners to establish a network built on trust. Through our website, we aim to cultivate the same level of trust with our valued customers.”
The launch of ReFit Global’s website not only enables customers to conveniently access premium refurbished electronics but also contributes to a sustainable future by reducing electronic waste and promoting a circular economy.
