The government's new system financed 250,000 repairs in six months. 1,050 stores - including 40% shoemaking and 60% alterations - allow consumers to benefit from this bonus.
The average bonus is 8 euros, which “may seem quite low when we know that the bonus ranges from 6 to 25 euros,” says Elsa Chassagnette of Refashion. In 2019, 16 million pieces (clothing and shoes) were repaired. Refashion hopes to increase this figure to 21.6 million by 2028 thanks to this system.
