Sharon, the Founder of GREENIES, also shared her journey. Inspired by the surplus of clothing during the COVID-19 pandemic, she established a social enterprise and eco-platform for second-hand clothing, promoting sustainability and reducing waste. In the early stages of her business, she managed daily operations and the collection of second-hand clothes. As the business grew, she transitioned these responsibilities to her staff and now focuses on back-office tasks such as marketing and collaborations with other organizations.
