Yale’s Needs:

Yale University received a generous donation from a proud alumnus. Without incurring a huge amount of cost, Yale Hospitality with the support of TAGeX Brands, developed a program to sell and remove the surplus equipment from Woolsley Hall (soon to be the Schwarzman Center), now that the building is being prepped for a new renovation.
Yale University selected TAGeX Brands because the firm could achieve three goals. The first goal was to remove all equipment from the facility to prepare for a major renovation. Secondly, generate a return on the sale of surplus furniture, fixtures and etc. for Yale Hospitality. Lastly, Yale shared our beliefs in taking a route that is green friendly and sustainability conscious. View “Our Process” to see how we accomplished these tasks in just six steps.
