Advanced Supply Chain (ASC) are market leaders in Reverse Logistics, trusted by major retailers for our tech-led solutions. We believe in sustainability and the power of giving clothing a second life. Damaged or traditionally “non-saleable” returns, along with pre-loved garments, are restored by our experts to like-new condition and ready for resale. This process extends the lifecycle of textiles, diverts garments from landfill, and reduces environmental impact. The result? A solution that benefits the planet while creating additional revenue streams for brands and retailers. Sustainability without sacrificing profit, that’s the ASC way.
