SwagCycle: Our Amazing Growth in 2022

 It’s been an incredible journey since we launched SwagCycle back in 2019. We are extremely proud to share an update on our dramatic growth in 2022, our third full year in operation. When we launched SwagCycle, we knew there was an obsolete swag problem, but we are tremendously gratified by the interest that has been shown in our industry’s first-ever platform of this type. It’s been thrilling to see the demand from companies looking to donate or recycle their swag with us, as well as the range of charities who have requested to join our platform. Let’s take a look at what happened this past year and how our platform is making a difference in charitable donations and qualified charitable contributions.

 The Year So Far

We started off 2022 by expanding our scope beyond just donating and recycling swag to include the ability for companies to purchase customized swag items from us. This opened up new opportunities for companies to further customize their brand and create unique marketing campaigns that connect with their customers on an even deeper level. The response from companies was overwhelmingly positive and paved the way for us to continue growing as a business. 

In addition, we saw an increase in the number of charitable donations organizations requesting access to our platform. We welcomed over 200 new charities into our network, allowing them to easily access corporate donations of swag items they can use for fundraising efforts or distribute among those in need. We were also able to secure over $1 million dollars worth of qualified contributions throughout the year, which will go directly toward helping those most affected by poverty around the world. 

Finally, we made huge strides towards protecting the environment this past year by diverting millions of pounds of otherwise obsolete swag from landfills and into more sustainable outlets such as recycling centers and donation drives organized by local charities within our network. This helps ensure that these items can be reused instead of taking up space in landfills where they will remain indefinitely without proper disposal methods being employed. 

Conclusion:   

It has been an incredible experience seeing how SwagCycle has grown over the past three years – from a small start-up venture into a full-fledged business with over two hundred charity partners across multiple countries around the world! We look forward to continuing this work and beyond as we strive towards creating a better future through smarter corporate gifting solutions, environmental sustainability initiatives, and charitable giving programs that make real change happen on a global scale!
