THE VEND
the home of collective & slowly
SHOP LOCAL
SHOP SMALL
SHOP SLOW
Originally based in Victoria, BC, The Vend Collective offers a curated boutique experience centered on quality and sustainability. We specialize in unique consignment pieces, supporting local designer's, and promoting a circular fashion movement that values slow over fast. Since opening our first location on Fort street we have expanded to Montreal in spring 2026.
The Vision
Founded by Tawnee Popil, born and raised on Vancouver Island, The Vend was created with a clear vision — to offer a more curated, boutique-style shopping experience that’s often missing in the secondhand world. Every piece is chosen with intention, focusing on quality, style, and longevity, so shopping secondhand feels just as inspiring as buying new
At its core, The Vend is about slowing down fashion, supporting circular style, and creating spaces — both online and in-store — where secondhand shopping feels elevated, accessible, and fun.
