Hong Kong is named as ‘Shoppers’ Paradise’ where shopping malls and brand name shops are always around the corner. However, there is a lack of thrift shops while thrifting is becoming more popular in Hong Kong. For example, thrifting markets in Central and Sheung Wan are being held unregularly throughout the year, initiated by different individuals or organizations, such as ‘Lawnmap Hong Kong’. Therefore, in order to cater to this emerging trend and also encourage more interactive and innovative activities in Hong Kong, thrift shops will be a sound solution.

Ways of Operation
There can be places for permanent thrift shops and also pop-up thrifting on special occasion, subject to application to a management company. The management company is responsible to approve the applications of both permanent and temporary thrift shops. For permanent shops, they can have permanent decorations installed within their shop area. For temporary ones, their installations must be removable and do not pose permanent changes to the venue.
