Ganni sells for millions online – earns nothing himself
At a time when second-hand purchases are only becoming more and more attractive, the Danish clothing brand Ganni is one of the most popular brands on «resale» platforms such as Vestiaire Collective and Trendsale.
It writes the Danish fashion website Mode forum.
According to the fashion website, hundreds of Ganni ads a day are created on Trendsale alone. Also with Norwegian «resale» platforms such as Tise and Finn.no, there is no shortage of resale of Ganni clothes.
A brand new research report conducted by Lifestyle & Design Cluster and reproduced by Fashion Forum, shows that used Ganni clothes are sold for millions every year on various used sites.
Well, Ganni himself will make sure to make money on this million dollar industry.
Ganni boss Nicolaj Reffstrup can tell that they have a bit of everything in store:
– We must offer our community several different opportunities to approach us, through our own, renting and selling Ganni. We must do this in a way that is so fluid that consumers do not even feel that they have made the responsible choice. And then we have to make sure that we make money from it, so that we can scale the initiative and create a lasting change in the way we consume fashion.
