Vinted is Europe's largest online marketplace for secondhand fashion, letting individuals buy, sell and swap pre-owned clothing, shoes and accessories across 26 markets with no fees charged to sellers. Founded in Vilnius, Lithuania in 2008 by Milda Mitkute and Justas Janauskas and now led by CEO Thomas Plantenga, the consumer-to-consumer platform turned profitable and processed EUR 10.8 billion in gross merchandise value in 2025 before launching in the United States in early 2026.
Came up with the idea for Vinted in 2008 while looking to offload her own wardrobe before a move, and has since stepped back from daily operations to focus on new ventures and investing.
