About Oxfam Deutschland Shops gGmbH
editOxfam Deutschland Shops gGmbH is a subsidiary of Oxfam Deutschland e.V. and operates a network of secondhand shops throughout Germany. With the goal of creating a just world without poverty, the Oxfam Shops offer an attractive opportunity to advocate for sustainability and social justice.
The shops offer a diverse range of donated items, including clothing for women, men and children, shoes, accessories, jewelry, household items, home textiles, books, CDs, DVDs, records, games and toys. Some shops also carry products from "OxfamUnverpackt", which offers unpackaged food and cosmetics. The offer varies depending on the shop type (Mixshop, Fashionshop, Buchshop), with each shop having its own focus.
The main mission of the Oxfam Shops is to support the development policy work of Oxfam Deutschland e.V. through the sale of secondhand items. The shops pursue the goal of conserving resources, creating an attractive secondhand offer and doing good at the same time. The company's values are based on transparency, sustainability and commitment to a more just world.
Sustainability plays a central role. By selling secondhand items, the Oxfam Shops help to extend the life of products, conserve resources and reduce the environmental impact of the textile industry. The shops accept well-preserved donations and ensure that they are put to meaningful reuse. Unsold but well-preserved items are passed on to local social department stores or employment projects. Some of the surplus clothing is sold to other non-profit organizations or textile recycling companies.
The Oxfam Shops rely on the support of volunteers. Dedicated volunteers take on a variety of tasks, from accepting and sorting donations to pricing and selling to decorating and advising customers. Oxfam offers its volunteers regular opportunities for exchange and further training.
The Oxfam Deutschland Shops gGmbH is also politically active and advocates for fair supply chains and social justice. In the shops, customers can find out about current CAMPAIGNS and sign petitions.
