Ikea has launched a marketplace for buying and selling second-hand Ikea furniture and homewares, rolling out in Ireland, Portugal and Spain. The move lets customers resell used items directly through the company, and is being linked to growing interest in sustainability and the circular economy in retail. Commenters are watching whether the scheme will expand to other markets.
