RRecovo
Recovo is a Barcelona-based circular-fashion technology company founded in 2021 that helps fashion brands and manufacturers give a second life to textiles. It started as a B2B marketplace for deadstock fabrics and surplus materials (serving 1,000+ companies including Mango, Pronovias, Brownie, ABOUT YOU and Sepiia across 16+ countries) and has since shifted toward SaaS/recommerce — plug-and-play resale, repair and traceability software that brands embed on their own sites, with AI used for inventory management, authentication and pricing. It is seed-stage, has raised roughly €1.7–2M to date, and is headquartered in Barcelona.
