Sold before the date.
Every coldstore has a pallet nobody is looking at. By the time someone notices, it is a discount or a write-off. We find it while there is still time, and the buyers who want it.
You know this pallet.

The stock list is a spreadsheet someone updates on Fridays. It says four pallets of collar. The coldstore says six. Both are a little bit right.
A buyer calls for collar. You sell from the new lot, because it is at the front, and you know it is good.
Someone finally walks the aisle. Three pallets at the back, five days left. Too short for most of your buyers.
It goes at half price to a trader who knew you would call. Or it goes in the bin.
Nobody forgot. Nobody had the whole picture.
What the back of the aisle costs.
Take a business with about €2 million of stock a month. If just 2% of it goes late, and a hurry fetches half the price, that is €240,000 a year. Move the sliders to your own numbers. It is a rough guide, not a promise: in the first weeks we look at your real stock.
We assume makebetter helps sell about half of that stock on time, at the full price.

The old lot finds you first.
Your team still sets the price and picks the buyer. They just hear about the pallet while it can still be sold.

Your stock, your price, your buyers.
You set the price. Always.
You decide what goes on the market, and who sees it.
Your regular buyers hear from you first.
Nothing is listed or sold in your name until you say so.
On our own desk, every lot has a date and a list of buyers who want it. The oldest stock goes out first, at a fair price, not last at half.
One stock list is enough.
No project plan, no new system to learn. Your coldstores, your ERP and your spreadsheets stay where they are.
