Short Dated & Seasonal Stock Clearance

Stock Solutions buys and redistributes short dated stock, near expiry food and end of season inventory across Australia quickly, discreetly and at the best return possible.

Short Dates Move Fast & So Do We

Short dated stock is one of the most time-sensitive challenges in the supply chain. Every day that passes reduces your options and erodes your return. At Stock Solutions, we move quickly. We have an established network of retailers and bulk buyers across Australia actively looking for short dated food, near expiry products and seasonal clearance inventory which means we can place your stock fast, at a price that still makes commercial sense for your business.

We Understand the Pressure of Short Dated Inventory

With more than 30 years of combined experience in FMCG forecasting, planning and stock control, the Stock Solutions team has seen first-hand how short dated and seasonal stock can spiral into a costly problem if not handled correctly. We bring the same commercial discipline and network depth to every short dated deal that we apply across our broader stock clearance operation protecting your margin, your brand and your trade relationships while moving product before it becomes a write-off.
