Depop buyers and sellers have been helping to popularise secondhand fashion and drive forward resale culture for over a decade, but how do we continue to earn cultural relevance and resonance? Last week, Depop CMO Peter Semple took to the stage as keynote speaker at Brands&Culture to discuss how brands can contribute to culture, rather than just chase cultural influence. See all the highlights from the event here: https://lnkd.in/eJBYZihU
Last week, to wrap up Black History Month at Depop, the aim was to embrace this year's theme of “Reclaiming Narratives,” by giving people the chance to connect, share stories, and experience the richness of different cultures firsthand. The Black@Depop ERG hosted a special Vibes Takeover, celebrating Black culture, flavours, and community. The team brought the energy with an Ultimate Black Pub Quiz, where winners took home vouchers for Jamii—a fantastic platform supporting Black British creators and makers, while DJ2Smooth took us back with an old-school set. 🎶 A huge thank you to our vendors for a delicious spread; Gebeta Ethiopian Kitchen, 2 Nigerian Boys, and Belly's Taste of Caribbean, and Bad Breed Rum Punch and Wondamix who kept the drinks flowing. To close out the BHM celebrations, we experienced a coffee ceremony led by Rhoda Authentic Ethiopian Coffee & Cake Shop, where employees enjoyed the rich flavours of traditional coffee and sweet bread, bringing a bit of cultural heritage to London HQ. A perfect ending to an inspiring month! ✨ #BlackAtDepop #ReclaimingNarratives
🌟 Last month, the Black@Depop ERG welcomed 12 mentees from The Elephant Room "One Month Mentors" scheme to London HQ! 🌟 Kicking off with an office tour and giving everyone a look behind the scenes at Depop, Black@Depop Co-Chair Khadra Aden then hosted a powerful panel talk with some inspiring ERG members including Salieu Jallow, Morgan Thorne, Jumoke Adekunle, Rebecca Levy-Lewis, Dana Ashur and Laila, where they discussed their journeys and experiences working in tech. A huge shout out to The Elephant Room — the One Month Mentors scheme is an amazing initiative that’s supported hundreds of young people since its inception. It’s always a privilege to connect, share, and uplift the next generation of young professionals eager to take the next steps in their careers.#BlackAtDepop

Brand & Activations @ Depop | Speaker

A couple of weeks ago, we teamed up with Snap Inc. to host our very own Depop Pop-up at Snapstreet—an immersive, in-person activation that brought Depop to life through workshops, giveaways, and an interactive AR Snap mirror. The crowd favourite was the Depop Claw machine, giving attendees a chance to win clothing and accessories ranging from vintage Chanel sunglasses to Palace T-shirts. The four-day event was a huge success, and it was incredible to feel the love for Depop, especially since we haven't been outside in a minute. A special shout-out to Depop seller Sante Koranteng, who hosted a sold-out, oversubscribed workshop on the Saturday! It’s amazing to see how much you’ve grown as both a creative and a businesswoman over the years. Big love to the team who brought this event to life Oskar Platts-Palmer, my partner-in-crime on this one, Natalie Bean, and the entire social + creative team, who worked quickly to turn this around for us.

👀 Did you know that fall and winter can be one of the most impactful times of year to shop secondhand instead of new? Cold weather essentials like jackets, boots and fleeces can drive an average water saving almost 3 times higher than summer items, when you buy them secondhand on Depop. Finding a leather jacket on Depop rather than new could save over 140 lbs CO2e - equivalent to the carbon footprint of an iPhone! And tracking down those perfect winter boots secondhand could save the equivalent CO2e of driving more than 300 miles by car, plus over 3,500 glasses of water. If you’re building out your cold weather wardrobe, that’s more incentive than ever to think secondhand first. ♻️ ♻️ ♻️ For more about how we’ve calculated this, check out our explainer at the link below, which includes a link to our full methodology. https://shorturl.at/qqatW https://shorturl.at/ZHGLm*Averages are calculated by comparing item subcategories split by typical seasonal use, and the iPhone comparison is based on data from Apple on the lifecycle of an iPhone 13 128GB, including sourcing raw materials, manufacturing, shipping and the end of use.
In collaboration with our DEI partner Colorintech, Depop’s Lead Technical Programme Manager, Khadra Aden, took the stage at Black Tech Fest 2024 for the ‘Applying AI’ panel, sharing valuable insights on the impact of AI on job roles and the broader industry. The discussion highlighted how AI has evolved in recent years and explored how Depop are using AI tools to drive personal efficiency and innovation within our teams. It was an inspiring reminder of how AI is positively reshaping the way we work and pushing boundaries in the tech space 🚀#BlackTechFest2024 #AI #TechInnovation
