The KonMari method was made popular by Marie Kondo. It is an approach to organization that prompts individuals to get rid of physical items that do not bring them joy. Building off of this is Michele Delory — a consultant and professional organizer, who works with eBay to identify the four shopping trends for 2020. Delory owns the website 'Modern & Minimalist,' which details what the KonMari method is and allows for people to book a tidying session with her. She is based in Toronto, Ontario.
According to the certified KonMari consultant and eBay, shoppers are increasingly conscious about sustainability and their preference to support local businesses is growing. Another trend that is identified is the further embrace of the sharing economy, as well as the emphasis on healthy lifestyles.
