Momox Hits €377 Million in Second-Hand Sales Surge

OMR reports on Momox’s continued growth as a major recommerce operator: the German company reported €377 million in revenue for 2024 (an 8.6% increase vs. 2023) and operates inventory of more than 14 million used items across ~150,000 m². Momox buys used books, media and clothing via barcode-based apps with real-time AI-driven prices that are updated roughly every 30 minutes; roughly 10,000 sellers send an average of 20 items per day to its Leipzig logistics center. Momox sells through its own shops (Medimops and Momox Fashion) and marketplaces — Medimops now handles ~60% of book/media sales directly and Momox Fashion ~90% of clothing sales, while Amazon still accounts for ~30% of total volumes. The company employs ~2,100 people, sells ~200,000 items daily (about 60,000 transactions), and aims to minimize recycling by relying on data-driven sourcing. Growth priorities include geographic expansion and scaling fashion, though low-cost new goods from China pose competitive pressure.
