In the age of fast fashion and rampant consumerism, customers are beginning to take a longer, harder look at how they can keep up with the latest trends while keeping sustainability in mind. Thryffy, a fashion consumer-to-consumer marketplace app, is dedicated to helping Malaysians make the shift to thrift. Co-founder Azril Harahap discusses their mission of popularising pre-loved product purchases, as well as their exciting plans for expansion.
