Discover Unique Treasures

Global Used Clothing Trade With a Focus on the Middle East and Africa. The secondhand clothing market has evolved into one of the fastest-growing sectors in sustainable global trade. For over 15 years, the United Arab Emirates has stood at the heart of this movement. Thanks to its strategic location between Europe, Asia, and Africa — and its world-class logistics infrastructure — the UAE has become a key global hub for used clothing import and export.  At Thriftique, we connect trusted suppliers and verified buyers from across the globe. Our expertise spans every stage of the trade: sourcing high-quality used garments, sorting and grading, and managing efficient shipping routes to markets in the Middle East, East and West Africa, and beyond. We understand regional dynamics better than anyone. African markets value durable everyday wear and affordable fashion that meets local climates and tastes, while Middle Eastern buyers often prioritize premium, branded, or vintage apparel. Our regional knowledge ensures that every shipment is tailored to meet specific market needs — from bulk bales for wholesale to carefully curated retail selections.Whether you’re a buyer seeking consistent quality or a supplier looking for international reach, Thriftique is your reliable gateway to the global secondhand clothing trade — where sustainability and opportunity meet.
