Circular Development Blogpost 3/3

 

Hello,

Hope you enjoy a wonderful weekend in the sun!

I have now finished my internship at Boob Design and finished writing the report that will be presented on Monday. It has been very instructive to have the opportunity to gain insight into a company's work to move towards a circular business model. I have realized that it is not always as easy as you think and that there are problems at many levels that cause obstacles to your ideas. Although it has been a challenge, I am happy with my internship and have learned a lot. The end result of the proposal that I developed with the help of continuous meetings with my mentor and other employees at the company resulted in a small-scale project that would primarily offer second-hand sales to Stockholm-based customers. Boob Design's office is very centrally located so the range would be displayed on the website, but the garments would be handed in and picked up at the office. This was considered to be able to work because the company could then control the amount of garments that are up for sale and could thus control the flow. During the final phase of the project, it turned out that there were final constraints which meant that the project would not be feasible but would be investigated further internally for possible development and implementation in the future. I look forward to following Boob Design's sustainability work in the future towards a circular business model 😊

 Wish you luck with your final presentations and hope you’ll have a wonderful summer!
