Medimops second-hand market platform

Medimops is one of Europe's largest online retailers for second-hand items, specializing in used books, CDs, DVDs, and video games, and more recently expanding into fashion. Launched in 2004, the platform serves as the consumer-facing outlet for the momox ecosystem, which focuses on the circular economy by purchasing goods from individuals and reselling them after quality checks.

The brand originated in Germany and remains deeply rooted in the German market, though it has expanded its reach across Europe. Its operations rely on high-tech logistics centers located primarily in Germany and Poland, where items are processed, stored, and shipped to customers. This model promotes sustainability by extending the lifecycle of consumer products.

Today, Medimops is operated by momox SE. The company has seen various investment structures over the years, including backing from private equity firms such as Verdane, which took a majority stake to accelerate international growth. The ultimate ownership resides within momox SE, headquartered in Berlin, which continues to lead the re-commerce sector in the DACH region.
