Charity Super.Mkt to open more pop-ups amid rising demand for secondhand clothes

Shop sites will include London, Edinburgh and Leeds, with young people driving preloved trend

The secondhand clothing pop-up Charity Super.Mkt is set to head to Edinburgh, Leeds, Sheffield and the heart of London's Canary Wharf financial district as it opens a dozen more stores next year catering to a rise in interest in shopping for preloved items.

The initiative, which has brought together 55 local and national charities in the UK, including Age UK, Oxfam, Barnardo's, Traid and RSPCA, in about 16 stores since it launched in a former Topshop in London's Brent Cross shopping centre in January 2023, said it has booked 3m of sales. Sites have included a takeover of the former Fenwick store on London's Bond Street.
