Zalando’s pre-owned webshop expands into Denmark and Sweden
Online fashion retailer Zalando has extended is Zircle pre-owned webshop to Denmark and Sweden after launching it in Germany two years ago.
The move follows a Zalando survey that found around half of retailer’s Swedish and Danish customers would consider buying pre-owned fashion within the next six months.
Mareike Hummel, director UX recommerce at Zalando, said: “We are very excited to expand Zircle to Sweden and Denmark and offer Nordic consumers a pre-owned experience with the highest level of convenience. Over the past two years since launching Zircle in Germany and expanding across Europe, we have gathered many learnings that helped improve the customer experience when shopping on Zircle.”
