Vector Co., Ltd. (HQ: Okayama City; CEO: Tomohiro Murakawa), an operator of fashion reuse businesses, is promoting a store model that integrates buyback specialty shops within 'Jeans Shop OSADA' in collaboration with System 14 Co., Ltd. (HQ: Osaka City; Chairman: Kimihiko Terasaki).
Following the success of the first store, 'Buyback Specialty Vector Fujieda Tsuiji Store,' which surpassed 1 million yen in monthly buyback transactions, the company is opening its second location, 'Buyback Specialty Vector Kakegawa Store' in Kakegawa City, Shizuoka Prefecture. To celebrate the opening, a '20% Buyback Price Boost Campaign for All Clothing' will be held at both locations.
### Background: Achieving Sustainable Management Through Integration of Primary (New) and Secondary (Reuse) Markets
In the fashion industry, where mass production, consumption, and waste are major issues, it is not easy for individual apparel companies to tackle SDGs alone. In this context, Vector leverages over 20 years of expertise in the fashion reuse business to support apparel companies entering the reuse market.
In September 2025, Jeans Shop OSADA opened a buyback counter at its Fujieda Tsuiji location through an alliance with Vector. This provided a 'circular shopping experience' where customers can sell unwanted clothes and use the funds to purchase new items. This initiative has been highly rated by customers and has contributed to increasing sales at the existing store. The second store is being opened as the model has successfully balanced environmental consideration and profitability.
### Customer Voices (Excerpts)
- 'I'm happy that I can buy new OSADA items immediately with the money from selling my old ones.'
- 'Having a place nearby to let go of items makes it easier to try new styles of clothing.'
- 'It's convenient because I can let go of items when I come to buy new clothes, making closet organization easier.'
