Circularity and Recommerce: Building Scalable, Sustainable Consumer Models
Circularity and recommerce are gaining rapid momentum across Asia, driven by a fast-growing middle class, mobile-first consumers, and increasing pressure on retailers to balance growth with sustainability. In this session, Vishal Salunkhe, Vice President at Carousell Group, explores how recommerce is scaling across Asian markets, where affordability, trust, and convenience are redefining consumer value.
Drawing on Carousell Group’s footprint across Southeast Asia and Greater China, Vishal will unpack the operational and supply chain foundations required to make circular models work at scale. Topics include building consumer trust in pre-owned goods, managing quality and refurbishment flows, enabling efficient reverse logistics, and localising recommerce strategies across markets with vastly different regulatory, cultural, and infrastructure dynamics.
