Get Ready for 2026 – The Perfect Time to Refresh Your Fleet
Hello B2B buyers and procurement teams.
December is the month when the sharpest companies quietly lay the foundation for a flying start in January. While many wait until the new year and face higher costs and stock delays, the leaders use these final weeks to clear space, free capital, and secure everything they need for Q1–Q2 2026 deployments.
The Q4 Refresh Wave Is Here
Corporate device refreshes surge in the final quarter every year. Leasing contracts signed in 2022–2023 are maturing in bulk, finance teams want clean balance sheets before 31 December, and warehouse managers need room for the 2026 models that start arriving next month. The Mobile Ecosystem Forum’s 2025 Yearbook confirms that corporate trade-in and refresh volumes rise 68 % in Q4, with December alone driving the majority of that increase.
Recommerce Has Gone Mainstream
The secondary device market is no longer a niche. The Recommerce Index shows that nearly 9 in 10 global consumers plan to maintain or increase spending on pre-owned electronics in 2026. In Europe the recommerce sector is on track to grow from €7.7 billion in 2023 to an 11 % share of the €107 billion online consumer-electronics market by the end of 2025. Enterprises lead this shift, using structured refresh programmes to fund new AI-enabled devices while hitting ESG targets.
Regulation and Economics Are Accelerating Change
The EU eco-design directive that came into force in June 2025 now mandates five years of software support for all new devices sold in Europe. At the same time, UK replacement cycles have stretched beyond three years (Mintel 2025), making planned enterprise refreshes the most cost-effective route to stay compliant and competitive. The global device trade-in platform market is growing at 13.2 % CAGR to $23.7 billion by 2033, with the biggest gains coming from bulk corporate programmes exactly like the ones running right now.
Acting in December turns a routine year-end task into a genuine competitive advantage: you clear inventory, generate working capital, and position yourself to deliver the latest multi-brand devices your clients will demand in 2026.
Why December Is the Perfect Time to Partner with New Way International
Since 2003 we have helped hundreds of UK and European resellers, networks, and enterprises turn year-end refreshes into their strongest quarter.
We make the process simple and fast. Credit or payment is issued within 48 hours of receipt, and every device receives bank-grade GDPR data erasure with individual certificates. Credit never expires and can be used immediately against any current or future stock in our warehouse.
With £550 million annual turnover and offices in London, Germany, Holland, Dubai, and Miami, we have the scale to handle everything from 50 devices to 5,000+ in a single transaction. One partner last year cleared 4,800 devices in mid-December, received credit the same week, and used it to secure their full Q1 2026 fleet before prices rose in January. That is the advantage of working with a distributor who is ready when you are.
