Studiu: 74% dintre români au cumpărat haine second-hand în ultimii trei ani

A recent study reveals that 74% of Romanians have purchased second-hand clothing in the last three years, with many also opting for used furniture and electronics. Financial reasons drive this trend, as 30% cite lower prices as a key factor. Interestingly, buying second-hand does not necessarily replace new purchases, with 36% of respondents increasing their new clothing purchases as well. The study highlights a growing interest in sustainable consumption and circular economy practices, with 60% of Romanians willing to donate clothes to friends or family. However, concerns about hygiene and product quality still hinder some consumers from fully embracing second-hand options.
