What Retailers Can Do With Unsold Bra and Underwear Inventory: A Tax-Deductible Way to Create Impact
After the holiday season, many retailers are left with bras that didn’t quite find their match. Styles shift, customers move on, and suddenly, shelves and storage are holding perfectly usable inventory.
For retailers who want to clear space responsibly — without sending usable bras to landfill — there’s a solution that supports both business needs and community impact.
