ShelfLyf
Shelf Life Management Platform

Liquidate smarter.
Waste less.

ShelfLyf connects FMCG manufacturers with verified liquidation partners — turning at-risk inventory into recovered value before it expires.

The Problem

FMCG manufacturers write off billions in inventory every year. The liquidation process is broken.

Phone calls, spreadsheets, and WhatsApp groups. No central system means deals take weeks while inventory depreciates daily. You don't know who's buying, at what price, or whether you're getting a fair deal.

Manual & fragmented

Deals take weeks across disconnected channels.

Zero market visibility

Trust is built on gut feel, not data.

Time hemorrhage

Every day unsold is a day of storage cost and lost capital.

Zero-Knowledge Encryption

Your data is encrypted.
Not even we can see it.

Every manufacturer gets a unique encryption key, backed by Google Cloud's hardware security modules. Your pricing, deal terms, and inventory data are encrypted before they ever touch our database. ShelfLyf staff cannot read your data — by design, not by policy.

Per-Org Encryption Keys

Each organisation's data is encrypted with its own unique key. One org can never decrypt another's data.

AES-256-GCM + Cloud KMS

Military-grade encryption. Keys protected by hardware security modules that even Google engineers cannot extract.

Full Audit Trail

Every access to sensitive data is logged. Sensitive values are redacted from logs — we log that something changed, never what.

Good for business. Better for the planet.

Verified onboarding

Every manufacturer and partner is reviewed before gaining platform access.

Redirect before discard

Unsold inventory gets matched with NGOs, food banks, and CSR programs.

Zero-knowledge encryption

Tamper-proof audit trail

Every action and every access to sensitive data is logged. Sensitive values are never stored in logs.
