Béis, the luggage brand founded by actress Shay Mitchell, teamed up with resale technology company Trove to launch Second Béis, a new platform for purchasing pre-loved Béis products.
"This programme does two things—it gives our bags a longer lifecycle, and it gives us the opportunity to reach more lives," said Adeela Hussain Johnson, chief executive of Béis, in a statement, "We know there are people out there who haven’t been able to try our products yet, and we see Second Béis as a new access point to bring them into our community."
Second Béis speaks to a younger generation of shoppers and travelers passionate about second-hand purchases, and it gives more consumers the chance to get their hands on best-selling products from Béis, including weekender bags, backpacks and duffles.
