App Background
Thrift shopping is gaining popularity as it offers affordable fashion while promoting sustainability by extending the life of clothing. However, traditional thrift shops often struggle with limited reach, lack of visibility, and dependence on in-person transactions, which restrict customer access and growth opportunities. In the Philippine retail landscape, where online shopping continues to expand, many small businesses face difficulties establishing a strong digital presence.
To address this gap, RVA was developed as a web-based e-commerce application tailored for thrift shops. The platform allows customers to conveniently browse, select, and purchase pre-loved items online while providing shop owners with tools to manage product listings, shopping carts, and secure checkouts. By bridging the thrift shopping experience with digital accessibility, RVA enhances customer convenience, expands business reach, and supports sustainable fashion practices.
