According to the 4wayvoice, for many Taiwanese, being industrious and thrifty is a virtue. Carousell Group pointed out in the 2021 report of the "Carousell Recommerce Index", Taiwan ranked second for the first time, and the Philippines ranked first. Taiwan ranks high in various items, and this shows that people in Taiwan are willing to put second-hand goods as the first choice for buying and selling.

Penny Cox, the Director of Carousell, further pointed out that second-hand trade of fashion items has continued to grow rapidly since this year when the Asian region is tremendously affected by the pandemic, and this is especially true in the category of women's clothing. Since mid-May of this year, the number of views of the women's clothing category increased by 99%, and the number of items that go off the shelf increased by 41%.

The survey unit pointed out that fashion items are the category that Taiwan users are willing to trade the most, including buyers accounting for 52% of the total second-hand goods and sellers accounting for 62%. In the future, start-ups or technology companies can refer to this data to expand their business territory to Taiwan or Southeast Asia.
