Foresell 貨售

Foresell (previously named Food-lab) is a start-up company that aims to use the venting locker machine to solve the problems of the poor rate of reducing waste and lack of the distribution channel of e-commences. With their locker services, people could place their unwanted items into their cells, then simply fill in some basic information, and their items could be sold in the lockers! The merchants could also sell their goods by placing the items on the lockers. The 24/7 locker could make people's lives in a more convenient and simple way. It is a hope for residents to buy the items by walking downstairs steps. They have run this as a project for 3 months and registered as a limited company recently. 

The Issue

Foresell aims to solve the social issues of underprivilege and the overconsumption problems while the customers' problems of lack of distribution point for the e-commences and lack of overnight stores are also their concerns. Furthermore, under the COVID-19 pandemic, people have concerned regarding the face-to-face transaction and seeking the transaction that could avoid the touch directly. 

The Solution

To solve the problems above, Foresell offers the solution of the automatic vending locker that could vent the goods from merchants and sellers 24/7. Sellers could finish the listing of the items by filling in the basic information of the items and placing them on the cells. Buyers could buy it by scanning the QR code of their website and check out the favourable items directly. As a result, they could consign their items in an offline way at any time and enjoy the wide variety of the items in just a downstairs step. For the underprivileged users, they could use their “Lock with Love by Foresell” service. With this service, the related NGOs and kindness could place the items on our lockers for free or at a relatively cheap price, and only the authorized underprivileged could buy the items. As a result, the convenience and flexibility for the underprivileged could be improved.

Impact

Recently they have registered as limited company and in the future, they also plan to have cooperation with other startups or organizations.
