About refurbed

 

Refurbed is the fastest growing online marketplace for refurbished products in the entire DACH region. Founded in 2017 by Peter Windischhofer, Kilian Kaminski and Jürgen Riedl in Vienna, refurbed now employs more than 250 people. The platform offers fully refurbished electronic devices up to 40% cheaper and with at least twelve months warranty. Refurbishment emits 70% less CO2 than the production of a new device. In addition, we invest in environmental protection for for every product sold. All refurbed products are therefore 100% more sustainable than new appliances. In the meantime, the product range on the marketplace comprises more than 25,000 products - from smartphones, laptops and tablets to household appliances or e-bikes. Currently refurbed is present in 12 countries, including Austria, Germany, Sweden, Italy, Ireland and Denmark and more.

 

"C4 Ventures are far more than just investors for refurbed, they are true partners for the past 5 years. From the very first conversations during due diligence, their depth of understanding, thoughtful challenge, conviction, and alignment with our values stood out. As refurbed grew from start-up to scale-up and now fully profitable across 12 markets, C4 have remained deeply engaged; bringing strategic insight at the supervisory board level, making valuable introductions, and offering thoughtful guidance through their partners. Among all our investors, C4 uniquely combines a founder-first mindset with practical experience that truly moves the needle."
