Julius and Ole came to the idea of founding what later became the F&P Stock Solution in 2013 on a balcony in Berlin’s vibrant district of Friedrichshain. It all started with the question: “What happens to the many shoes that can’t be sold anymore?” They got to know each other during their time at Zalando. Julius (born 1984) worked from 2011 to 2014 as Senior Vice President at Zalando and was responsible for all departments in the off-price division. Ole (born in 1985) led the Business Development team at Zalando from 2011 to 2013.

“Our vision was to give a second life cycle to unsold stock clothing inventory. We buy overstocks, customer returns and liquidations of shoes, textiles, and accessories and resale them to wholesalers. We didn’t expect such a fast company growth within such a short time period.” (Ole)

“We are very proud and thankful to our wonderful team, which is working with a lot of energy and enjoyment at F&P.” (Julius)

“Julius and Ole are full of energy and new ideas, which they pursue with a great sense for business and lifeblood. They always manage to find a moment in case you need them. At F&P there are lots of opportunities for self-development, in case you are ready to catch them!” (Employee)
