31. OFFBounds Trends | The Rise of Recommerce

OFFBounds Summer Series - Episode 01/04 

Today we dive into one of retail's hottest trends: Recommerce. 

As the urgency for sustainable business practices grows, recommerce—repairing, recycling, and reselling—is becoming a vital strategy for many retailers and brands. 

Driven by consumer preferences and regulations, the market is projected to grow five times faster than overall retail by 2025, reaching 120 billion euros in Europe. 

In this episode, we explore the pressures behind this shift and showcase innovative practices from around the globe. Experts Sharon Yourell Lawlor, Steve Lister, and Andrew Smith join us to discuss regional adaptations, successful examples like Nudie Jeans, Veja, and Selfridges, and practical steps for businesses to embark on their sustainability journey. 

Recommerce is more than a trend; it's the new normal. Are you prepared to lead this revolution? Tune in and get inspired!
