Happen Ventures is a reuse-first company committed to transforming items once deemed waste into valuable assets. We prioritize sustainable solutions that are both cost-effective and innovative, focusing on resale, reuse, repair, and then recycling to maximize efficiency and minimize environmental impact. Our innovative strategies aim to make sustainability and savings go hand in hand.
Big retail brands, manufacturers, and distributors are often left with excess inventory, returned products, and items that can still be used. From hand sanitizer and cosmetics to clothes and furniture, thousands of pounds of perfectly good products are thrown away year after year.
At Happen Ventures, we’ve created partnerships and programs to make it easy for big brands to divert excess inventory to non-profits, organizations, and people in their communities – instead of landfills.
When items and products are used instead of thrown away, everyone wins! Less waste, less cost, and more lives touched.
So far, we’ve diverted 80,000 tons of excess items, inventory, and usable waste to thousands of organizations and millions of people.
