In 2024, Refuture Foundation commissioned a report focused on data research that would expand our understanding of the flows of secondhand clothing globally, which was conducted by our current Ambassador Peter Allan and Executive Officer Megan Mabin.

The report includes key data on where clothing is being exported from, its passageway through sorting centres such as UAE, Malaysia, and the volumes being received into each destination country. Read our insights into the destinations of Australian clothing and the relative scale of our exports compared to other major trading countries over recent years here.
