A quote from Executive summary:
The urgent need to shift to a more sustainable and circular economic model that maximizes resource use has become increasingly clear. But enacting this systemic transition requires concrete changes in daily economic activities. Circular marketplaces are emerging as an important avenue to bring circularity into mainstream commerce.
These digital platforms use technology to efficiently facilitate exchanges of used, recycled, and upcycled materials and goods. Everything from secondhand apparel to scrap metal to remanufactured electronics is being circulated on growing platforms like ThredUp, Troveo, and Back Market. By making transactions frictionless, circular marketplaces unlock latent value in wasted products and bring circular principles to life.
