The secondhand market is growing, and more people are embracing the circular economy. But for parents, this is nothing new—passing down clothes, toys, and baby gear has always been a practical way to save money and reduce waste.

Kids grow so fast that buying everything brand new just doesn’t make sense.

The challenge? Finding a simple and reliable way to buy and sell secondhand items. That’s where Petit Marché comes in, with a range of products for children aged 0 to 15.

WHAT IS PETIT MARCHÉ?

Petit Marché is a user-friendly mobile app designed to make buying and selling secondhand kids’ items in Switzerland easier than ever. Available in English, German, and French, the app connects parents looking to buy and sell everything from clothes and shoes to toys, bikes, and baby gear—all in one convenient place.

EASY BUYING AND SELLING

Many parents love the idea of secondhand shopping but find the process frustrating—coordinating with sellers, arranging pickups, and handling payments can be time-consuming. Petit Marché simplifies everything:

  • Buyers can choose to pick up items in person or have them shipped via Swiss Post.
  • Sellers receive a prepaid shipping label once an item is sold, making shipping hassle-free.
  • The checkout process is as seamless as any online store.

SAFE & SECURE TRANSACTIONS

Online marketplaces can come with risks, but Petit Marché ensures secure transactions. Payments are processed within the app using credit cards or TWINT, with funds held until the buyer confirms receipt. If the item is shipped, confirmation happens automatically—eliminating the risk of fraud.

Plus, because Petit Marché is designed for parents in Switzerland, there’s an added level of trust within the community.

POP-UP EVENTS FOR HANDS-ON SHOPPING

One of the challenges of buying secondhand online is not being able to see items in person before purchasing. Petit Marché solves this by hosting regular pop-up events where parents can browse a wide selection of items from the app and buy them on the spot.

With Petit Marché, secondhand shopping for kids is easier, safer, and more convenient than ever. It’s an eco-friendly choice that saves money, reduces waste, and helps parents connect within a trusted community.
