The reality

Your competitor down the street just bought the same plates you're selling — at full price.

You could have sold them yours.

What restaurant owners say

We saved €4,800 on our refit. Same Villeroy & Boch plates we would have ordered new. Condition was perfect.

Marco V.
Owner, 80-seat Italian restaurant
Amsterdam

Sold 200 plates from our old concept in 3 days. Made €1,600 from what was sitting in boxes for a year.

Sophie L.
F&B Manager, boutique hotel
Brussels

The swap program is brilliant. We refresh our tableware every season and it costs us less than one supplier order.

Common questions

Are these actually professional-grade plates?
Yes. Every listing specifies brand, collection, condition, and quantity. These are the same Bonna, RAK, Churchill, and Villeroy & Boch plates you order from suppliers — just from another restaurant that no longer needs them.
What if the plates arrive damaged or aren't as described?
We hold payment in escrow until the buyer confirms pickup and condition. If something isn't right, you get a full refund. Zero risk.
How much does it cost to use?
Free to join. Free to list. Free to browse. We take a 12% commission only when a sale is completed. The seller receives 88%.
I need 120 matching plates. Can I find that quantity?
Restaurants typically list in bulk — 50 to 400 plates per listing. You can also post a wanted request specifying exactly what you need, and we'll match you when it becomes available.
Is the Swap Program available now?
We're onboarding the first restaurants now. Create an account and you'll be first in line when it launches in your region.
