As Valentine’s day is celebrated as "Friends' Day" in many countries, the day is exceptionally precious to Swappie since according to our bi-weekly employee surveys, the majority of our employees feel that they see themselves making friends here at work 😍  Is there anything better than to work with like-minded and friendly people who accept and appreciate each other as the individuals that they are?! ✨

To celebrate friendships at work, today we have a lovely photo booth in both countries to commemorate the moments with good friends and colleagues. In Tallinn, people have been able to submit anonymous nice messages to each other throughout the week and the messages will be hand-delivered to their receivers with a piece of chocolate today.

💛 Happy Valentine’s Day from Swappie! 💛

Swappie warmly welcomes the new 𝐑𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐑𝐞𝐩𝐚𝐢𝐫 Directive Agreement, which has recently been reached by negotiators from the European Parliament, the EU Council, and the European Commission! 💚🎉

Our Head of Public Affairs, Claire Darmon, who remained at the forefront of spearheading Swappie’s efforts of advocating for the Right to Repair for consumers, expressed enthusiasm about the positive implications of the agreement:  
"𝘛𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘨𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥𝘣𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘭𝘦𝘨𝘪𝘴𝘭𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘨𝘯𝘴 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘚𝘸𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘪𝘦'𝘴 𝘮𝘪𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘵𝘰 𝘮𝘢𝘬𝘦 𝘩𝘪𝘨𝘩-𝘲𝘶𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘳𝘦𝘧𝘶𝘳𝘣𝘪𝘴𝘩𝘦𝘥 𝘦𝘭𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘳𝘰𝘯𝘪𝘤𝘴 𝘢𝘤𝘤𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘣𝘭𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘸𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘦 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘳𝘪𝘣𝘶𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘰 𝘦𝘯𝘷𝘪𝘳𝘰𝘯𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘢𝘭 𝘴𝘶𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘪𝘯𝘢𝘣𝘪𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘺." 🌍

We celebrate this milestone, yet the work is not done - Swappie will actively contribute to the effective realisation of these measures and engage in the implementation process. As the refurbished electronics market continues to grow, Swappie looks forward to collaborating with stakeholders and Member States to drive innovation, reduce electronic waste, and advance the principles of the circular economy. ♻️

It is snowy ❄️ in Helsinki, but it is 𝐒𝐋𝐔𝐒𝐇 time of the year! ✨

Yesterday our CEO Sami Marttinen was on the stage and discussed about the founding story of Swappie and navigating through change. 

Sami encouraged companies not only to navigate through change, but instead 𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐲 𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞 change. Swappie's success has been heavily dependent on playing an active part in change creation, as we have been in the forefront of creating a new refurbishing business model, changing the way consumers feel about refurbished electronics, and actively pushing for international level laws and regulations that will benefit all the refurbishing industry in the long run. 

It is not easy, but it is important and will create a better tomorrow for the environment - One of Sami's pivotal personal drivers behind Swappie.  

Have an inspiring day two at Slush (or at the Slush office studio like us)! 🙌

One can consume responsibly, also on Black Friday - just choose a refurbished product like Swappie's! 📱♻️

We have had such fun with our favourite event of the year, Black Friday!  
Our Tallinn repair-heroes have had a Fancy Black Friday with everyone dressed up, and Helsinki has had a pizza party 😋

We wonder who of you will get a pre-loved iPhone packed by our VP Operations, Adrian Preda, as he joined the Leipzig team to help out fill all the orders ✨

It is Circular Monday today! ♻️✨

Circular Monday encourages people to consume consciously – by repairing and recycling what they own and buying second hand when in need of something new. It is a perfect day to remind ourselves that once we don’t need our old electronics anymore, it is smarter to sell or recycle them instead of leaving them in the drawer.

Swappie CEO Sami Marttinen discussed the importance of circularity with #circularmonday campaign manager Tuuli Sofia Solhagen at MTV Oy Huomenta Suomi show yesterday morning.
