    Thomas Plantenga & Alex Taussig: Vinted CEO's Ultimate Guide to Scaling Marketplaces | E1114

    Following a strategic refounding led by Thomas Helmers, Lithuania's Vinted transformed from a near-collapse startup into Europe's largest online second-hand marketplace by pivoting to a free-to-sell model and leveraging symbiotic shipping partnerships. This operational overhaul enabled the company to expand geographically through a depth-focused strategy, eventually securing a profitable presence in the UK despite initial repeated failures. With this foundation, the pan-European entity now targets a $40 to $50 billion valuation as a global multi-category platform while relying on cash flow from mature markets to fund further expansion.
