Retail Tech Startup “Another” Raises $2.5 Million in Seed Funding to Optimize Excess Inventory Sales

Retail technology startup Another has successfully raised $2.5 million in seed funding to accelerate the development of its software platform designed to help brands and retailers manage and sell excess and unsold inventory more efficiently.

The company aims to address long-standing challenges associated with off-channel inventory sales, where fragmented stock across multiple warehouses, limited visibility, and difficulty in pricing and timing decisions often result in financial losses or forced liquidation at heavily discounted rates.

Another’s platform integrates directly with companies’ existing systems — including returns management platforms — to unify data and workflows across teams. This connectivity enables real-time insights that support more informed decisions regarding inventory movement, pricing, and resale strategies.

The newly secured funding will be used to speed up product development and expand the company’s team, with a strong focus on helping brands maximize the value of their inventory before resorting to wholesale liquidation.

Through its technology-driven approach, Another seeks to strike a stronger balance between profitability and sustainability, reducing waste from unsold goods while improving margins and offering consumers more competitive pricing options.
