About Mobius Materials
Mobius Materials is a fast-growing marketplace helping electronics manufacturers buy and sell chips safely, quickly, and at market prices. Forecasting the right number of chips to buy when manufacturing a hardware product is a hard problem. If you overbuy, you end up with excess inventory, and if you underbuy, you end up scrambling to find the parts you need. Mobius solves both of these problems by closing the loop: we help customers sell their excess components and quickly find stock when needed.
Besides helping our customers, we’re also helping the planet. The electronics industry throws away $15 billion of chips annually—most of the chips we sell would have otherwise gone into a landfill.
