**The Problem:** Furniture retailers and consumers lose $40 billion annually
by tossing reusable furniture.
Because of this waste, retailers and consumers aren't just losing money but
are also contributing to the 9 million tons of furniture sent to U.S.
landfills annually.
Most retailers and consumers have not tackled this problem because of the
logistical challenges associated with reusing damaged, overstock, returned,
and gently used customer furniture.
**About Us:** LoopDeco helps reduce losses and the environmental impact by
making furniture sustainability easy and profitable for businesses and
consumers. We are achieving this by leaning on existing resellers to tackle
furniture waste at scale. Through our web platform, retailers and consumers
are connected furniture resellers to keep furniture out of landfills and in
circulation.
Our co-founder has been working in this space for over 2 years under his
company CouchCycled. Since launching in 2022, CouchCycled has achieved $400k
in revenuew with no outside funding. We are launching LoopDeco as a new entity
and are first focused on creating a reseller network by providing tools that
help their business succeed.
