The Sharp Rise of Europe's Secondary Market: Pieter Waasdorp
Europe’s market for second-hand electronic products, valued at USD 61 billion in 2024, will rise to USD 93 billion by 2034, a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.4%, according to research. Driven by consumer demand for affordable technology, increasing environmental consciousness, increasing adoption of e-commerce platforms for sales, and a rise in tech-savviness among consumers (especially younger generations comfortable with online marketplaces and refurbished products), this leads to reduced e-waste and a more circular economy. We’ll talk with Pieter Waasdorp from Secondarymarket.news about the latest secondary marketdevelopments.
