Sunmool is building a web platform to allow people to exchange or give away their unused outfits with the goal of using technology to enable the kind of gift economy. Earth is currently at a tipping point in its history as human activity has increasingly brought the planet out of balance. Key to this problem is our current economic system which encourages material consumption and compels consumers to continually buy new products.Clothes are an example where this takes place. As clothes are a durable good, such items are often discarded before they are fully used and many people have a closet filled with outfits that are collecting dust instead of being used. While such outfits can be donated to charity, only an estimated 20% of donated items end up being resold for further use and much of the rest ends up in a landfill.Our mission is to give old outfits another chance and, along the way, re-introduce people to the power of giving. Additionally, by encouraging users to gift a percentage of their items, Sunmool hopes to connect people to their innermost social and physiological need to care for others in a material environment and culture that makes this easy to forget. Outfit exchange is the first step in our company's mission. Our goal is to eventually expand into other classes of items for exchange and gifting. By replacing consumerism with gifting, we hope to change societal habits in a positive, planet-saving, way. Since we founded Sunmool, we have learned a lot about the needs in the second hand clothing market and developed strong connections to the industry. We are aware about the environmental issues, and we want to be the part of solving the problem that our generation is facing. By giving more options to the consumers in how they deal with their purchase and this will affect consumers to be wiser in buying quality items rather than excess items. Where they care for their items and change the mentality from consumer to owner.
