Through every buyer, seller and listing, we believe there’s opportunity beyond the transactional. Our mission is to inspire every person in the world to start selling and buying to make more possible for one another.

    🌍 Choosing secondhand over new is more than just a smart choice for your wallet—it’s a way to do good for our planet. ♻️ 📢 Our new Carbon Savings feature, launched first on Carousell Singapore and Malaysia for categories like Fashion, Electronics, Furniture & Home Living and Hobbies & Toys, now enables users to see how much carbon emissions they can avoid by choosing secondhand instead of new. Did you know that buying a secondhand laptop on Carousell can potentially save up to 137 kg of carbon emissions—equivalent to charging over 22,000 smartphones? Amazing, right! So keep an eye out for this new icon and continue being part of the solution with Carousell. 📝 This is just the beginning. We're committed to making sustainability more accessible by expanding this feature to many more categories. Join us in celebrating the power of choice as we redefine consumption patterns, advocate for a circular economy, and make secondhand the first choice!  💚 #Sustainability #CircularEconomy #CarbonSavings #SecondhandFirst #ClimateAction

    🌱It's inspiring to see our team bond and grow beyond the office. In our Taiwan office, we’ve started a monthly tradition where team members come together for hobby-sharing sessions, providing a platform for us to learn from each other's passions. 🏞️One of our colleagues shared his enthusiasm for mountain climbing, offering us a glimpse into Taiwan’s beautiful landscapes and providing essential tips for beginners. His insights were both captivating and encouraging, inspiring many of us to consider exploring this activity ourselves. These sessions not only bring us closer as a team but also motivate us to embrace new challenges and interests. It’s great to see how our team’s creativity and passion continue to inspire each other!🌟

    🎉We celebrated our 12th Carouversary as a Group across all eight of our regional office locations. Our theme of this year's celebration was 'green', a reminder of how Carousell was started with the goal of inspiring people to sell their underutilised and unused items, and give these items a new lease of life instead of having them end up in the landfills. A heartfelt thank you to our incredible team, partners, and users for being part of our journey. Your support and dedication have been instrumental in helping us continue to push boundaries and achieve new heights together.

    💡What an amazing TAQELAH SINGAPORE meetup for passionate engineers who came together to share their experiences and knowledge at Carousell! Our lead software engineer, Abhijeet Vaikar, captivated the audience with his insights into the culture of dogfooding at Carousell. His talk provided real-world examples that highlighted how Carousell's dogfooding practices contribute to our platform's quality and reliability. Engaging discussions during the session sparked new ideas among attendees, and we're excited to see how these insights will be applied in their future projects. Looking forward to more inspiring meetups in the future! In case you missed the session: https://lnkd.in/gXYWqfHN
