Zara is set to launch its pre-loved clothes in the United States by the end of October. This new service will allow customers to sell, repair, or donate their used clothes which aims to help reduce waste and extend the life of their products. The service is part of Zara’s Pre-Owned Programme, which first started in the UK in November 2022 and is now available in 16 European countries, including Spain, France, and Germany.

Millions of people visit Zara’s online platforms daily, according to the CEO of the parent company. This shows strong potential for this new initiative.
Zara’s introduction of second-hand items follows in the footsteps of other fashion brands. H&M also offers secondhand clothing services in the US. Additionally, Zara is planning to launch live shopping shows in major markets, including Spain, Canada, and Germany. These shows have already proven successful in China.
Zara’s expansion into secondhand clothing and live shopping shows reflects the brand’s commitment to sustainable shopping and innovative customer engagement. By offering these services, Zara hopes to promote eco-friendly fashion choices while exploring new ways to connect with shoppers worldwide.
Fast fashion has increasingly become the cause of significant global warming. Though many believe that their designs are authentic, Zara is considered the poster child for fast fashion. They replicate luxury brands and produce low-cost versions of them that drive over-consumption. However, pre-loved service is a customer-centric approach that leads to an emphasis on understanding and responding to customer preferences.
