Last summer, we launched our online resale platform, Second Wave, to give pre-loved Faherty pieces a new home. In 2023 alone, we diverted 7,527 lbs of clothing from landfills and saved 19,533 gallons of water, 3,317 KWH of energy, and 2.35 tons of carbon. It’s the perfect time to sell a Faherty fave on Second Wave. All September, when you sell on Second Wave, you’ll earn 120% in credit towards your next purchase on fahertybrand.com. Just select “store credit” instead of “direct payment” in your Second Wave account. https://secondwave.fahertybrand.com/ All of these savings are relative to efficient, conventional washing machines and dryers, and are based on a study Tersus conducted with the California Energy Commission published in 2020. Carbon conversions based on EPA calculations.

Ek gaatha - Once I stumbled upon a quaint shoe store nestled in the heart of a bustling town. The shopkeeper, burdened with surplus inventory and dwindling sales, was facing a tough road ahead. But as a seasoned liquidator, I saw an opportunity to lend a helping hand. With empathy and understanding, I offered the shopkeeper a lifeline: surplus stock at prices too good to resist. As we struck a deal, I could see the glimmer of hope in his eyes, a spark of optimism amidst the uncertainty. Armed with an abundance of stylish shoes and a renewed sense of purpose, the shopkeeper set out to breathe new life into his beloved store. With each pair of shoes sold at discounted prices, I witnessed the transformation firsthand - not just of a business, but of a community. Through savvy marketing and heartfelt connections, the shopkeeper attracted a steady stream of customers eager to support his journey. With every sale, he rebuilt not just a store, but a sense of belonging and camaraderie in the town. As I watched the shopkeeper's success unfold, I couldn't help but feel a sense of pride. In a world filled with challenges, it's moments like these - where kindness and collaboration triumph over adversity - that remind us of the power we hold to make a difference, one pair of shoes at a time. The story of the shop and the liquidation experts is a testament to the resilience of small businesses and the power of collaboration in the face of adversity. Together, they were able to navigate the challenges of the modern retail landscape and ensure that the shop would live on for generations to come. I run a Liquidation Business (Bulqbox) and know the value of converting excess stock into cash, the value of building good relations, and the excitement and happiness of a small business when we save it from a big loss. After all, Sabke saath chalne se life me kafi sukoon aur khushi hoti hai :) #liquidation #surplusinvetory #inventorymanagement #bulqbox

Trove’s acquisition of Recurate (acquired by Trove Recommerce) was a significant change to the competitive landscape of branded behind-the-scenes resale. Since around 2022, Trove, Recurate, and other competitors including Archive, ThredUp, Reflaunt and CaaStle, have been on a spree of signing new brands to their platforms. Levi Strauss & Co., Patagonia, Oscar de la Renta and Abercrombie & Fitch Co. are among brands that have debuted resale channels powered by one of these companies in the last two years. But Trove is now well-positioned as a leader in the space. After the acquisition of Recurate, Trove now holds around 75% of the branded resale market and offers both inventory management and peer-to-peer resale. It has raised over $150 million in funding since its inception in 2016. According to CEO Terry Boyle, the next year will see Trove increasingly focused on an aspect of branded resale that is still nascent: the integration of brands’ secondary and primary channels.

"Simon Property Group's chairman, CEO and president David Simon has revealed the company 'successfully sold' its remaining investment in Authentic Brands Group generating total gross proceeds of $1.45bn. This included the sale of a portion of its interest in Q4 of 2023. The company's Q1 results benefitted from the sale of its remaining ownership interest in Authentic Brands Group with its net income including after-tax net gains of $303.9m, or $0.81 per diluted share. It has also raised its quarterly dividend and is increasing the mid-point of its full-year 2024 guidance. GlobalData retail analyst Neil Saunders told Just Style exclusively: 'Simon’s core property business is solid so it doesn't rely on retail as an add-on.'" #finance #equipmentfinance #equipmentleasing #financialservices #corporatefinance #retail #consumerfinance https://lnkd.in/dC6Mm3gu

Small brands often face significant challenges when relying on third-party sites, as they lack full control over their financial operations. The recent liquidation of Matches has left many sellers in limbo, struggling to gain clarity on unpaid invoices, and some are left with unsold stock made specifically for the online retailer. For small businesses, a 60-day wait for payment is already burdensome, but the risk of not receiving funds at all is even more alarming. With UPPFIRST, sellers can bypass the traditional retail model setting up a digital store in minutes, enabling them to directly engage with and get paid by their audience. No more chasing and waiting on invoices to get paid.

Another crazy stat from the ThredUp 2024 Resale Report that I can't stop thinking about... Social media is the # 1 preferred place by consumers to shop secondhand online. Not traditional resale apps or managed marketplaces. And 500+ million are using buy/sell/trade communities on Reddit, Facebook, and even Instagram to take part in shopping secondhand on social. People want trust, curation, connection, and to exchange clothing with their communities/people they trust. Secondhand 1.0 got us here, and I couldn't be more grateful (especially as a lover of secondhand and a person living on this planet!). But we need Secondhand 2.0 —community-first, ultra-curated, and fun, to hit the $350B market projections. A place to discover, connect around, and find the brands/things you love—with people who love what you love too. Join us in 2.0 land on Lucky Sweater. 🙂 https://lnkd.in/eVisFGqS #secondhand
