Meet market needs
Paradigm was founded from key issues seen in second-hand fashion .
- It's too complicated to resell your clothes
- The purchasing experience does not always make you want
- Fashion players are not involved enough on the subject
To respond to these problems, Paradigme has developed a unique second-hand solution.
- With Paradigme , the purchase of clothing is immediate and guaranteed , via gift cards valid at Paradigme or their partners
- Paradigme selects, controls and refurbishes second-hand clothing from the finest brands
- Paradigme supports fashion players in launching their second-hand offer : it is possible to resell your clothes in 2 minutes in exchange for a gift card from the partner or from Paradigme
This first fundraising of €1.2M marks a crucial step in the Paradigme adventure , affirming its position as an expert platform in high-end second-hand fashion .
With an ambitious mission , a dedicated team and the support of renowned investors , Paradigme is ready to continue its growth and transform, on its scale, the fashion industry for the better .
