Tunisian startup Dabchy, an e-commerce platform for second-hand fashion, has raised an undisclosed pre-Series A funding round to enhance its platform and expand into new markets.
Founded in 2016 by Ameni Mansouri, Ghazi Ketata, and Oussama Mahjoub, Dabchy connects buyers and sellers through an integrated delivery and payment system, making sustainable fashion more accessible and convenient.
After expanding into Egypt in 2023, the company is now setting its sights on further regional growth. The latest funding round was led by Janngo Capital, with participation from Renew Capital and angel investors, including InstaDeep founder Karim Beguir.
With this investment, Dabchy plans to expand into new markets, diversify its product offerings, and enhance its platform to support its growing user base.
“Dabchy was created to make fashion more accessible while encouraging sustainable practices,” said Ameni Mansouri, co-founder and CEO. “Our platform allows individuals to extend the life of their clothes, save money, and join a community that values fashion and sustainability.”
Karim Ben Fadhel, Investment Ecosystem Development Manager at Renew Capital, highlighted the startup’s impact in promoting circular fashion and empowering individuals to monetize their wardrobes.
“Dabchy is driving a much-needed change in the fashion industry. Their community-focused platform makes sustainable fashion more accessible and affordable while contributing to a more conscious and connected future,” he said.
With growing demand for affordable and eco-friendly fashion, Dabchy is positioning itself as a key player in the second-hand fashion market across North Africa and beyond.
