Circular commerce, elevated.
At Stocks, we believe every product deserves purpose. We help leading brands extend the life of their inventory, reducing waste and recovering value through intelligent, sustainable redistribution.
Our approach is strategic and brand-conscious – giving you control over how and where your products re-enter the market. Unlock value from excess inventory – without compromising your brand.
Sustainability meets strategy.
In today’s retail landscape, sustainability and financial efficiency go hand in hand. Managing surplus inventory responsibly is a key part of a brand’s ESG story – and a smart way to release working capital without compromising reputation.
Partnering with Stocks turns a challenge into a business advantage.

Charity work.
Michael’s greatest passion is supporting the most vulnerable children in our society. In his spare time Michael raises funds for children’s charities in the North West and, to date, has generated over £9.7 million through his personal giving, fundraising, and introductions. Please take a look at the Dr Michael Josephson MBE website for more information.
In November 2015 Michael was recognised by Variety, the children’s charity, with a Legends of Industry award for his services to charity. In January 2016 he was honoured with an MBE for Services to Children and in July 2020 was awarded Freedom of the City of London. In July 2024, was made an Honorary Doctor of Social Science for outstanding contribution to charitable work from the University of Bolton, becoming Dr Michael Josephson MBE”.
Dr Michael Josephson MBE Charity Ball.
The Hollywood actress and model Elizabeth Hurley, accompanied by her son Damian Hurley plus the beautiful and talented Patsy Kensit, attended the most recent charity ball, which was held on Saturday 16th November 2024 at The Hilton Hotel Manchester Deansgate (now called The Manchester Deansgate Hotel). Other notable guests included King of The Jungle, Christopher Biggins, former Manchester United and England captain Bryan Robson, Emmerdale’s Roxy Shahidi and Laura Norton, and celebrity couples Jorgie Porter and her partner Oliver Piotrowski, Ryan Thomas and fiancé Lucy Mecklenburgh and Nikki Sanderson alongside her partner Anthony Quinlan.
We also had amazing performances from Alfie Boe OBE, our good friend Lulu AND the cast of Grease! And the best thing? We raised £1,204,488.78 in total… WOW! The main beneficiary charities are Variety, the Children’s Charity, Mahdlo Youth Zone, Seashell Trust, The Anne Frank Trust and Rainbow Trust plus funds raised from the evening will also go to support smaller local children’s and youth charities via a grants process. No one misses out! I’d like to say special thanks to Julie Perry Events and the headline sponsor, global property investment specialists, Knight Knox, and everyone who shows up, donates time or money and is dedicated to helping others. THANK YOU!
