Tise

Norwegian second-hand marketplace

Tise makes it easy to buy and sell second-hand items, with integrated logistics and payment solutions for a safe user experience. Since its launch in 2016, over 6.5 million items have been sold through Tise.

With over one million registered users in Norway and a total of 2.5 million users in the Nordic region, Tise has taken a leading position in purchase and sale of used clothing and interiors. The platform inspires young people to buy second-hand to save the environment for polluting clothing production.

Emissions from the clothing industry

The textile industry accounts for 10% of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions, with far-reaching consequences for water use, pollution and waste generation. According to McKinsey, every fifth garment must be traded through a circular business model to reach the 1.5-degree target by 2030

According to a report by SIFO and OsloMet, 86% of clothes are bought new. The greatest interest in second-hand purchases is among women between the ages of 18 and 29, who buy 12% of their clothes used. By 2025, the global market value of used clothing is expected to double to over USD 200 billion.
