Episode Utrecht

Clot­hing that is dona­ted is depo­si­ted in con­tai­ners belon­ging to cha­ri­ty orga­ni­sa­ti­ons. The cha­ri­ties trans­port them to their own warehouse, whe­re they sort them to sell them to more sort­ing com­pa­nies all over the world. Here they are divi­ded into usable clot­hing and mate­ri­al for recy­cling. Tha­t’s whe­re epi­so­de’s employees come in! They visit com­pa­nies explai­ning to the staff how to sepa­ra­te the ever chan­ging vin­ta­ge fashion from the useable clo­thes. From all con­ti­nents the sel­ec­ted goods arri­ve at the epi­so­de’s warehouse, whe­re the garm­ents are washed, repai­red or up-cycled to make the most of your dona­ti­on. When rea­dy they are dis­tri­bu­ted to seve­ral Epi­so­de stores in Euro­pe for you to come and find the gor­ge­ous item! So as you can see Epi­so­de sells vin­ta­ge clot­hing, but your money is going to a cha­ri­ty ins­tead of to ano­ther per­son sel­ling the clo­thes. Unli­ke many other stores, Epi­so­de also does not accept peo­p­le coming in to offer their ward­ro­be for con­sign­ment as they only work with charities.
