Absolutely thrilled to welcome LANX as our newest brand partner. 🎉 LANX are a Lancashire-based footwear brand that do things differently. Handmade, built to last, and worn hard by people who mean it. Their boots don't just look the part — they're made to go the distance. And now, with the launch of Re-Lanx, they're making sure their boots keep going. Whether that's repairing a pair so they're ready for more miles, or refurbishing them to pass on to someone new — the goal is simple: keep them in use and out of landfill. What we love most? All repairs and refurbishments are carried out in-house, by a skilled team of cobblers, directly from their factory in Whalley, Lancashire. More details here... 🔗 lanxshoes.com/pages/re-lanx

**Why do customers prefer to buy secondhand - ** directly from you? Because it’s not just about price. It’s about trust (yes, it’s authentic). It’s about confidence (you vetted it). It’s about brand experience (still feels premium). And sometimes… it’s about adding a little something new to the basket, too. By relisting directly, your products get a second life - in your world, on your terms. That’s the power of branded resale. ♻️ Ready to own your resale story? 🔗 Link in bio to learn more. #RelistWithTern #CircularCommerce

Every day at Tern, we get to work alongside changemakers - brands that don’t just talk about doing better but they’re actually out there making change happen. ‍ We’re especially proud to partner with businesses that are part of the Certified B Corporation community. These brands are rethinking how retail works, with circularity at the core and a commitment to people and planet baked into everything they do. Why B Corps Matter? ‍ Certified B Corporations are businesses that meet high standards for social and environmental impact, commit to considering all stakeholders (not just shareholders), and are transparent about how they operate. They’re using business as a force for good, and we’re here for it! ‍ How Tern Fits In? ‍ Our mission is to make circular retail simple and scalable. We give brands the tools to launch and manage resale programs that they own and that meet their goals. ‍ Let’s grow the future of retail together. Contact us [email protected]

This Second Hand September, We’ll be doing a Second Hand Safari. A round up of the exciting businesses - and surprising facts behind the rising second hand market. Starting with @oxfamgb , the creators of hashtag #secondhandseptember. First launched in 2019, the campaign was designed to raise awareness of the environmental, economic and social benefits of shopping pre-owned - and donating what’s no longer worn. It’s been gaining momentum ever since, with charities, marketplaces and brands all finding clever ways to participate. As part of this year’s campaign, fronted by pre-loved shopping fan, Jameela Jamil, Oxfam released its latest research findings, citing (among many eye-popping stats) that in the UK, we currently have 1.6 billion unused items of clothes sitting idle in our closets. That’s a lot of potential inventory in a market with surging demand for second hand - wouldn’t it be wonderful to find it all a new home?

So excited to support the launch of British fashion brand @mintvelvet ’s RE:LOVED program! Created in response to growing demand from customers, the program was designed specifically to meet Mint Velvet’s requirements - and we’re proud to have played a part in bringing it to life. This launch also marks our first partnership with the brilliant team at MyWardrobeHQ, established leaders in rental and resale. They’ll be responsible for receiving and reselling all Reloved Mint Velvet pieces, helping ensure they find a second life in stylish new wardrobes. Here’s how it works: - Customers register their trade-in on the Mint Velvet website - Using the free shipping label, items are sent in - Once received and confirmed, credit is automatically issued - Reloved MV pieces are then refurbished and resold by MyWardrobeHQ Ready to take part? Start your trade-in today and give your Mint Velvet pieces a second life. 💚 #ReLoved #MintVelvet #MyWardrobeHQ
