It streamlines transactions, offering an accessible, affordable avenue for consumers to participate in the circular fashion economy and extend garment life cycles.
The company was co-founded by Luis Ongil, its CEO, and Lourdes Ferrer Ruiz-Vernacci, gaining prominence around 2014.

They built an efficient online solution, helping families save money on clothing while promoting apparel reuse.

Its vision is to normalize and scale pre-owned fashion consumption, advocating a more sustainable approach to clothing acquisition.

Percentil is a premium second-hand fashion consignment platform that buys high-quality pre-loved garments directly from sellers, handles logistics, quality control, and resale online at up to 85% discounts, serving families and women seeking sustainable apparel.[1][2] Operating as a managed marketplace in Spain, France, Germany, and Italy, it markets over 80,000 items with a team of around 34 professionals (pre-acquisition), generating approximately $6 million in revenue by bridging eco-friendly shopping with seller earnings—saving buyers €12 million and paying sellers over €700,000 to date.[1][4]
In May 2025, following insolvency proceedings, MySize Inc. (NASDAQ: MYSZ) acquired Percentil's key assets via its new subsidiary New Percentil, S.L., including 17 employees (former CEO and CMO), a central warehouse, AI-powered pricing engine, proprietary quality tools, and 120,000 vetted garments for €610,000 (~$679,000).[3][5] This integrates MySize's AI (e.g., MySizeID, Naiz Fit) for pricing, recommendations, and efficiency, projecting $1.5 million revenue in H2 2025—a 25% boost to MySize—while launching B2B "Circularity as a Service" for brands' overstock.[3][5]
Founded in late 2012 in Madrid, Spain, by Luis Ongil (logistics), Lourdes Ferrer (marketing), and Daniel Bezares (fashion), Percentil emerged to tackle clothing waste—where individuals discard 30kg annually—by creating a premium consignment model for children's and women's garments.[1][2] Early traction came from an end-to-end service: free pickups, quality assurance, and online sales, backed by Active Venture Partners, Cabiedes & Partners, and angels; a €3.2M Series A in 2015 led by Seaya Ventures fueled expansion to Germany, France, and Austria, tripling inventory to 70,000 items and 10,000 monthly orders.[2]
Pivotal growth included launching a women's fashion vertical and m-commerce, serving 75,000+ users via platforms like Kirondo.de.[2] By 2025, after a decade, insolvency hit amid re-commerce pressures, but MySize's asset acquisition revived operations under New Percentil, retaining core team and tech for EU circularity push.[3][5][6]
Percentil rides the circular fashion wave, amplified by EU regulations mandating brand reuse plans and textile circularity, transforming second-hand from niche to infrastructure amid 30kg annual waste per person.[2][3][5] Timing aligns with re-commerce's profitability edge over fast fashion resellers, fueled by sustainability demands and AI efficiencies in pricing/inventory—market forces favoring managed models over pure P2P.[3][6]
As MySize's asset, it influences ecosystems by partnering Orgad logistics with AI sizing (Naiz Fit/MySizeID), enabling B2B overstock monetization and premium experiences that reduce churn.[3][5] This positions it as a scalable player in Europe's €100B+ resale market, driving higher retention via tech like Miros' 60-second session success.[6]
Post-acquisition, Percentil scales under MySize with AI synergies, targeting tripled inventory, new markets, and B2B dominance via "Circularity as a Service"—projecting profitability lifts and $1.5M H2 2025 revenue.[3][5] Trends like EU mandates, AI personalization, and premium re-commerce will propel growth, evolving its influence from consumer consignment to brand infrastructure.
Tying to its roots, this revival cements Percentil's vision as Europe's top sustainable fashion enabler, now tech-fortified for circular dominance.[1][3]
Percentil has raised $6.4M across 4 funding rounds. Most recently, it raised $4.0M Series A in September 2015.
