The launch marks a return to the city for co-founder Wayne Hemingway whose Red or Dead brand occupied a space on the adjoining Buchanan Street in the 1990s.
The growth of pre-loved shopping shows no signs of slowing as one of the UK's fastest-growing charity chains brings its exciting new supermarket to Glasgow's city centre .
The Charity Super.Mkt concept has proved hugely popular thanks to its curated collections of second-hand fashion. To date, the brand stated that 225,000 items of clothing have been snapped up, generating sales which have just reached £2m, creating a much-needed additional income stream for the likes of Shelter, Cancer Research, Age UK and TRAID.
And Charity Super.Mkt Co-founder, Wayne Hemingway, is excited by the location of their latest venture, adding: “Glasgow has proven over the years to be at the forefront of style and cultural movements and second-hand and vintage clothing has always been popular in the city. To be opening a store just yards away from where we opened Red or Dead in the 90s feels pretty surreal.
