LEADING MARKETPLACE
FOR FMCG SURPLUS

Your Comprehensive Surplus Asset Solution

Whether discontinuing a product line, upgrading equipment, or disposing of excess manufacturing assets, Liquidity Services understands the fast-paced nature of FMCG asset sales. Our global marketplace connects assets with qualified buyers throughout the consumer goods ecosystem, from contract manufacturers to emerging brands seeking cost-effective production solutions.

The Liquidity Services FMCG team appreciates the unique value of consumer goods equipment, from high-speed packaging lines to specialized processing machinery. When rapid product changes or facility consolidations arise, we manage every aspect: cataloging diverse assets, marketing them to qualified buyers, and handling transactions through final settlement without disrupting ongoing operations.

Audit Ready, Compliant, and Secure

FMCG asset disposal is subject to stringent regulatory requirements, encompassing food safety standards, environmental compliance, and financial governance. Documentation, sanitation records, and audit trails are crucial for ensuring regulatory compliance and maintaining brand protection. By partnering with Liquidity Services, you ensure that your surplus asset program meets the standards of the consumer goods industry while freeing up internal resources to focus on your organization’s business needs.

Turn Asset Management into a Strong Balance Sheet

Every product launch, line extension, or format change generates underutilized or unnecessary equipment. Converting these assets into cash while retaining their market value immediately offsets innovation costs and boosts the return on invested capital. Speed is particularly crucial in the FMCG sector, where market trends and consumer preferences can rapidly impact asset values and product viability.

FMCG inventory carrying costs and storage requirements for idle equipment create ongoing financial burdens and operational inefficiencies. Surplus packaging equipment, processing machinery, and specialized tooling require continued maintenance, cleaning, and storage costs. Our AssetZone® platform provides real-time visibility into assets across your operations, enabling teams to redeploy equipment between facilities or identify surplus assets for immediate sale, optimizing both capital efficiency and operational agility.

Advance Sustainability Through Surplus Asset Management

An investment recovery program directly supports FMCG companies' sustainability commitments and circular economy goals. By prioritizing equipment reuse and refurbishment over disposal, you extend the lifecycle of manufacturing assets while reducing the environmental impact of new equipment production. Every machine that finds a second life in consumer goods manufacturing prevents new production, thereby avoiding the energy consumption and raw material extraction associated with specialized equipment.

For FMCG companies facing increasing consumer and regulatory pressure over environmental impact, a surplus asset program provides quantifiable sustainability metrics. Through our network of qualified food, beverage and consumer goods buyers, manufacturing equipment continues serving product development and production, supporting smaller manufacturers and emerging brands while delivering environmental benefits that align with corporate sustainability reporting and consumer expectations for responsible business practices.
