Early Findings
Vinted: Overview
Vinted
is a site where consumers can sell and buy
second-hand fashion
.
The company was founded in
Dec 2008
by Justas Janauskas and Milda Mitkute.
Today,
300 people
work at Vinted to help the world sell, buy, and swap second-hand wardrobe items.
Vinted’s offices are based in
Vilnius
, Berlin, Warsaw, and Prague.
These spots helped the company operate in
12 markets
: Spain, France, Luxembourg, Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany, Austria, the Czech Republic, Poland, Lithuania, the UK, and the USA.
"The company went through some
drastic changes
. First, it clawed back a lot of its pricey international expansion strategy (and along with that a lot of the costs associated with it); and second, it removed all listing fees to encourage more people to list. Now, Vinted charges a
5% commission
only if you conduct transactions on Vinted itself, bundling in buyer protection and shipping to sweeten the deal."
"The turnaround worked, and the company bounced back, and two years later, in 2018, it went on to raise €50 million. Today, Vinted has some
180 million products
live on its platform, 25 million registered users in 11 markets."
