Meet Carousell Group… leading recommerce enabler in Southeast Asia and the “#SeeingGreen Solutionist of the Day” for October 9.

On a mission “to make secondhand the first choice,” Carousell Group is the leading multi-category platform for secondhand in Greater Southeast Asia. Founded in August 2012 in Singapore, the Group has a leading presence in seven markets under the brands Carousell, Carousell Media Group, Cho Tot, Laku6, LuxLexicon, Mudah.my, OneShift, REFASH and Revo Financial. With millions of users, Carousell allows people to buy and sell a wide range of goods, from electronics and fashion to real estate and cars.

Carousell is deeply committed to sustainability by promoting a circular economy. The platform encourages users to buy and sell secondhand goods, extending the lifecycle of products and reducing waste. Carousell’s efforts align with global sustainability goals, aiming to reduce consumption while offering a practical way for people to declutter and give their items a second life. The company frequently runs campaigns to raise awareness about eco-friendly practices and collaborates with non-profits and environmental organizations to further its sustainability mission. In December 2023, Carousell released its inaugural Circular Economy Impact Report, showing that buying and selling secondhand items is a better choice for the planet compared to traditional retail of buying new items.
