The introduction of a resale business between Torrid and ThredUp has been announced. Torrid, which sells plus size clothing, intimates, and accessories straight to consumers, has used ThredUp's Clean Out program for the resale partnership. The agreement will enable Torrid to install the business's unique operational platform and provide its clients with a secondhand shopping experience. Sellers who list items for resale will receive a Torrid shopping credit to reuse on the site, and Torrid will be able to deliver a new secondhand shopping experience for all.
“As the first plus-size brand to leverage our RaaS platform, Torrid is a leader in its industry and making secondhand available to even more customers. Torrid’s resale programme offers a tailored and unique experience that provides consumers with a responsible way to give their preloved clothing a second or even third life,” said James Reinhart, CEO of ThredUp.
