Business Operations

Main products/services:
- Retail sale of used clothing, footwear, and accessories.
- Curated and seasonal collections (including “vintage” selections in select locations).
- Related circular economy activities: sorting, grading, and redistribution of second-hand textiles through a retail network.

Business model:
UAB "Humana LT" operates a nationwide network of brick-and-mortar second-hand clothing stores in Lithuania. It sources pre-owned textiles (typically via European collection and sorting networks), grades items by quality and style, and sells through local stores using structured pricing cycles common to the Humana brand (e.g., new stock “drop” days followed by progressive markdowns). The model emphasizes circularity, affordability, and frequent assortment refreshes to maintain store traffic and inventory turnover.

Market position:
Humana is one of the most recognized second-hand retail chains in Lithuania, with stores across major cities such as Vilnius, Kaunas, Klaipėda, Šiauliai, and Panevėžys. Its position is supported by a large and steady supply chain for used textiles, brand recognition, a consistent in-store experience, and a value-focused pricing strategy.

History

Founding and development:
- The Humana brand has roots in European used clothing retail and the broader circular textile ecosystem. UAB "Humana LT" was established to operate retail stores in Lithuania, expanding access to affordable second-hand apparel and contributing to textile reuse.
- Throughout the 2010s, the company expanded its store network in major Lithuanian cities and introduced curated “vintage” or premium-format stores catering to fashion-conscious customers seeking unique items.
- The company’s evolution in Lithuania mirrors broader European trends: rising consumer interest in sustainability, circular fashion, and price-conscious shopping.

Key milestones:
- Establishment of a nationwide retail footprint, including flagship or high-traffic locations in central areas of major cities.
- Adoption of standardized pricing cycles and periodic store refits to improve customer experience.
- Ongoing alignment with circular economy narratives (textile reuse and waste reduction).
