What the company did
BYMOV was a Paris-based social shopping platform for second-hand fashion and lifestyle products, founded in September 2018 by Farid Sayad. Available on iOS and Android, it positioned itself as a 'second-hand social shopping network that is 100% video': users bought and sold pre-owned items through video presentations, with fashion lovers expressing their styles and building communities to sell or discover second-hand trends. It raised about $718,000 in total, from Perpetua Investment Group (seed) and angel Karim Dellal (pre-seed).
