The entire B-Stock team is honored to have been awarded the 2015 Growth Company of the Year Award by the Harvard Business School Association of Northern California! This incredible accolade was presented to our CEO (and Harvard Business School alum) Howard Rosenberg at the 6th Annual Harvard Business School Entrepreneurship Summit. B-Stock won the award in the ‘Business to Business’ category.  The award recognizes companies that have successfully scaled from the startup phase using less than $20mm of outside capital.

Given the number of amazing startups founded by HBS alumni in the Bay Area, we are truly honored by this recognition and proud to be making such an impact in the business community as well as within the reverse supply chain.

By working hard to change the way organizations approach their customer returns and excess merchandise, B-Stock is revolutionizing the liquidation business.
