A new Miami facility will process sixty thousand mobile devices per month (including phones, tablets, and smart watches). The site is owned and operated by Alchemy, a global leader in the circular technology market.
The devices, sourced from leading device manufacturers, retailers, and mobile carriers, will be resold into B2C and B2B markets via Alchemy’s online store LoopMobile and its channel partners. The new site marks the next step in Alchemy’s phenomenal growth and innovation in the circular technology market.
The new site will have the ability to process up to sixty thousand mobile devices per month, avoiding more than 49,000 tonnes of Co2e emitted on new device manufacturing, per year, as a result.
Alchemy is the fastest-growing, global circular technology company. The company has traded over 5 million devices; went from zero to $443 million in annual revenue in five years; operates across 60 markets and has avoided an estimated 342,200 tonnes of CO2e.

With more space on the ground to refresh devices, the greater our ability to keep up with the incredible demand for quality, affordable, refurbished tech, and the better we can do for the planet.
