What Are the Key Growth Drivers Fueling the Apparel Resale Market Expansion?
The expansion of the apparel resale market is predicted to be fueled by the growth of e-commerce platforms. E-commerce platforms, which are online systems that facilitate business transactions, inventory management, and customer engagement over the internet, are gaining popularity due to the increase in online shopping, advancements in digital technology, and wider internet accessibility.
