Japanese pre-owned fashion retailer 2nd Street is launching in Taiwan with its first outlet set to open in Taipei.
Located in the Ximen neighborhood, the store offers some 7000 items, including clothing, handbags, shoes and accessories from Japanese designer brands such as Comme des Garcons and Under Cover as well as luxury brands like Louis Vuitton and Chanel.
The brand plans to open three 2nd Street shops in Taiwan by next March.
The 2nd Street Taiwan store’s layout and service will follow that of the stores in Japan. Prior to the launch, 2nd Street opened a pop-up store in Breeze Nan Shan mall to test the potential of the brand in the country.
“Our aim is to expand the fan base for 2nd Street with a combination of the experience developed in Japan for the re-use business and the retail management skills beloved by the people of Taiwan,” said Sadaharu Deguchi, chairman and GM at 2nd Street.
“I sincerely hope that 2nd Street Ximen Taipei will become an attractive location for many customers,” Deguchi said.
Launched in 2018, 2nd Street handles the sales of pre-owned products, including clothing, furniture, and appliances.
