About Recyclivre
RecycLivre is an innovative French social enterprise that has revolutionized the second-hand book market by combining environmental sustainability with social impact.
Founded in 2008 by David Lorrain in Paris, RecycLivre offers a free collection service for unwanted books from individuals and organizations, then sells these books online at affordable prices. Their unique business model donates 10% of net sales to literacy and environmental charities, creating a triple bottom line of economic, social, and environmental benefits.
The company employs people from disadvantaged backgrounds or those returning to the workforce, further enhancing their social impact. RecycLivre has saved millions of books from landfill, significantly reducing the environmental footprint of the book industry in France.
RecycLivre's platform offers hundreds of thousands of titles across all genres, with a user-friendly interface that helps connect readers with affordable books. The company has expanded beyond Paris to other major French cities and has begun international operations, pioneering a model that other countries are now emulating.
