The key steps to a Selency order

You’ve got it: Selency is a marketplace. Put simply, this means that when a buyer finds something they like on the site, they can order directly through the platform. Selency then informs the seller, who confirms the item’s availability. Ta-da, you’ve just been vintage shopping!

Towards an ethical and sustainable interior

Towards an ethical and sustainable interior

An innovative start-up is not only defined by the myriad of services it offers its users. An innovative start-up is also a business that keeps up with the times and accompanies its clients through the challenges of contemporary society, which are also relevant to them. Selency offers a responsible alternative to today’s industrial decor brands by giving thousands of second hand items a new lease of life. Using Selency is way to limit one’s consumptions and waste whilst also giving meaning to one’s actions. Selency has been guided by the principles of a circular economy for the last 7 years which is why we are engaged daily in a more responsible way of consuming by placing value in second hand purchases.

From Brocante Lab to Selency

Perhaps you knew Selency back when it was called Brocante Lab? In 2016, the start-up changed its name (but not its passion) and has worn this new name proudly ever since. Brocante Lab > Selency.
