A new sustainable marketplace, Farly, has opened its virtual shopping windows. Farly is aiming to build the world’s leading community of sustainable style setters. Caggie Dunlop, Hum Fleming, Kelly Eastwood, Niomi Smart, Henri Tiefenthaler and others travelled down to Clifton Nurseries to celebrate the launch.
In light of COP26, Farly could not have launched at a better time. It is clear that we should all consider the lifespan of our products and really think about the materials we surround ourselves with, yet time is of the essence. In comes Farly, where you can browse creative and beautifully curated shop windows, filled with unique sustainable finds. Farly is a step towards circular consumption challenging its users to help design a system that’s fit for the future.
Farly encourages its users to commit to building healthier supply chains, challenging themselves to use less resources, create less waste, and bring full transparency to the products they aim to sell through the site in a trendy and inspiring environment. Good curation is rewarded with Farly points through which discounts can be earned. The easy-to-use tools and creative space make it accessible for all users to market their products in an inspiring way. With its ever changing mood boards filled with latest finds, picks and products inspired by trends, anniversaries and key dates, Farly truly sets itself apart from other reseller sites. Both in creativity and sustainability efforts.
Farly welcomes second hand sellers, independents, and sustainable brands on the platform. Users who intend to sell are challenged to answer seven questions on sustainability in relation to the products they sell. The questions range from the supply chain of the product, to the manufacturing to the packaging. This leads to more transparency on the products and ultimately helps Farly build a more responsible shopping environment.
Users are asked to carefully consider any impact the creation of their products may have on human wellbeing, and ensure that those impacts are positive. Farly is ambitious in its plans to build a cleaner and greener future.
