The era of re-commerce

Climate-conscious husband and wife team Dean Jones and Audrey Khaing-Jones are co-founders of GlamCorner, an online designer fashion rental service – described as the Netflix of fashion. After 10 years of running their first sustainably focussed fashion business, they continue to dedicate their lives to reducing the environmental impact of the industry.   This year the duo also launched RELOOP, a service platform that allows customers to re-commerce their items. It’s a re-commerce marketplace where customers can buy, sell, recycle or repair their favourite premium fashion items.    From meeting in accounting class to building a B-Corp company with 130 employees, Dean and Audrey are a formidable force when it comes to making designer fashion accessible to everyone while keeping sustainability at the forefront of every business decision.   In this episode we cover:   The idea that kick-started GlamCorner   RELOOP, their new circular fashion tool   Unpacking the importance of re-commerce   The stark truth about textile landfill  Start-ups winning the environmental stakes  The changing consumer attitudes towards fashion  Why sustainability leadership is critical   Are the days of the big wardrobe over?  The role of business in educating the community   What it takes to be B-corp certified  A big thank you to AWS for supporting this season of the podcast.
