Trusted for 30 years in sustainable resale
At Used Products, we have over 70 shops across six European countries. What makes us special is our focus on buying, selling, and pawning a wide range of sustainable products, both new and second-hand. We offer instant (cash) money to customers for their items, and then, with every purchase, we provide a warranty.
What sets us apart is our combination of physical shops and a strong online presence. This allows us to serve customers efficiently and with expertise. With nearly 30 years of experience supporting franchisees, our franchise formula is sustainable, proven, and ready for the future.
Our goal is to create shops that go beyond the typical second-hand store. We want our shops to look and feel like brand-new retail outlets, providing a comfortable environment where customers feel welcome. This focus on quality and customer experience is what truly sets us apart.
Instant cash in 70+ shops in Europe!

Low costs, high opportunities
At Used Products we believe in a practical approach to franchising. Our shops share the same core values and way of working, but we also leave room for the personality and creativity of each entrepreneur.
We look at what is already available and make smart choices. If a location has a good wooden floor, we don’t replace it just because it’s not the exact style we usually prefer. That immediately saves thousands of euros. The same applies to display cabinets or other fittings. If you can find them second-hand in perfect condition, we encourage it.
This mindset is not about cutting corners but about investing wisely. Lower start-up costs mean you can reach break-even faster and build a healthy business more quickly. For us, flexibility and profitability go hand in hand, and that is what makes our franchise model strong.

A business built around opportunity
At Used Products, we believe that everything has its price. If a product fits within our assortment and has value in today’s market, we buy it. From smartphones and game consoles to jewellery, luxury watches, tools, musical instruments and much more. Our wide range of products keeps every shop interesting for customers and creates new buying and selling opportunities every day.
Because we buy directly from consumers, our assortment is constantly changing. That means there is always something new to offer, encouraging customers to visit your shop again and again.
The demand for quality second-hand products continues to grow. More consumers are choosing pre-owned products because they are affordable, sustainable and immediately available. As a Used Products franchisee, you benefit from this growing market while contributing to a circular economy by giving products a second life.
