Founded by Tawnee Popil, born and raised on Vancouver Island, The Vend was created with a clear vision — to offer a more curated, boutique-style shopping experience that’s often missing in the secondhand world. Every piece is chosen with intention, focusing on quality, style, and longevity, so shopping secondhand feels just as inspiring as buying new

At its core, The Vend is about slowing down fashion, supporting circular style, and creating spaces — both online and in-store — where secondhand shopping feels elevated, accessible, and fun.
