Retail TouchPoints has been studying and reporting on the evolution of resale for years. Over this time, we’ve seen consumer behaviors shift and demand accelerate, which means retailers have had to rethink the way they research and source “pre-loved” goods. How do they find the right wholesale partners? What are the risks they face while selecting products? How can they ensure their customers get the best deal and their business gets the best margins?
During this episode of Retail Remix, host Alicia Esposito dives into the booming secondhand wholesale market with Emily Erkel, CMO and Co-founder at LePrix. Hear her insights regarding the potential risks retailers face when getting involved in reselling items, plus what exactly is propelling them to take those calculated chances. Tune in to learn:
- How the vision for LePrix evolved from B2C to B2B;
- The unique challenges (and new developments) in the resale market; and
- How LePrix is investing in tech innovation and education to drive the market forward.
