The BRC Pre-loved Benchmark provides retailers and charity retailers with a weekly measure of pre-loved sales performance across the UK. By contributing sales data, participants gain access to aggregated market insights, enabling them to benchmark performance by category, channel and year-on-year growth.

Sitting alongside the BRC Retail Sales Benchmark, the service offers a trusted and consistent view of the growing pre-loved retail market, helping participants understand trends, identify opportunities and measure their performance against the wider sector.
