VALUES IN O-S-V

O-S-V is a carefully curated secondhand store located in central Copenhagen. Owners Line Øland and Andrea Gry Munch bought the store in 2018 with a hope to create a safe and welcoming place for people to hang out and do their secondhand shopping. 

 

INCLUSION

It is very important for Line and Andrea to create a comfortable environment so everybody feels welcomed and included. This is shown by an equal focus on women- and mens wear and by O-S-V opening a cafe in store in september 2023 so customers can stay as long as they want and grab a coffee to stay or to go. 

JOY
Our intention is to facilitate a joyful space for both our team and our customers. It is essential to us that both parts feel appreciated and benefit from our work.  
CIRCULARITY
Another important value in O-S-V is to create a circular and conscious work environment both within the O-S-V team and in the surroundings in O-S-V. The food we eat, the paint we use, the atmosphere when we work together are part of the things we make sure are sustainable and healthy. The O-S-V team takes a big part in creating and developing new ideas and each employee has their own area of expertise.
Line and Andrea cherish their employees very much,
and trust is a big part of their work ethic. 
O-S-V is short for "og så videre" which translates into "and so on”.
It represents our vision ofgiving old clothes new life to empower the circular economy and less waste in the world. In O-S-V we are so lucky that so many new people want to be part of this vision. We feel very lucky and thankful to have more than 1000 customers selling their clothes in O-S-V.
 
TRUST
Trust is also one of the core values in O-S-V. We carefully curate the store with clothes from private customers. The clothes are well taken care of by our curator and the whole O-S-V team, and the money is transferred every monday by our administrative employee. We are so lucky to have
very loyal customers who buy and sell their clothes in our store, so we aim to make it a smooth and trustworthy experience for all parties. 
WORKING TOGETHER
Our green and sustainable values are also the reason for our POP UP events every first Saturday in every month. We have POP UP events in O-S-V in collaboration
with various local and sustainable concepts and shops. We find it very important to support the sustainable initiatives around us by sharing our lovely location and space on Peder Hvitfeldts Stræde 4, Kbh K.
