Our Story: A Decade of Engineering, Perfected for you
To understand Refurbr, you need to look back a decade. Before the Refurbr brand was launched in 2025, its core was already battle-hardened. This technology began life as MPX, a revolutionary Business Operating System as a Service (BOSS), engineered by founders David Burgess and Simon Belcher.
For ten years, this platform wasn't developed in a silo. It was built on the front lines, hand-in-hand with real-world operators, and self-funded by its own success. It became the proven, unified backbone for businesses with complex operational needs, boasting client relationships lasting nearly a decade.
Refurbr is the focused evolution of that multi-million pound, decade-long journey. We took a mature, stable and powerful core and forged it into a precision instrument for the tech refurbishment industry. So while the name might be young, the engine powering your growth has been running and winning for years. We didn't just see a broken system; we had already built the answer.
