Temu is a popular UK shopping app that is currently dominating the app stores and is renowned for low cost products but we have questions regarding the quality of its musical instruments. While Temu offers attractively low prices, its approach seems to encourage consumerism through mass production efforts. This concerns us from a sustainability standpoint. By promoting inexpensive products made from non-eco-friendly materials, this could fosters a culture of overconsumption, ultimately damaging both the environment and the economy from extreme competition as the third parties are removed from the equation.
The reason we care is because it seems that - Temu promotes consumerism, which contradicts our commitment to sustainability. Their use of non-eco-friendly materials (mainly plastic based products) and low prices encourages excessive consumption, leading to environmental damage and wasteful habits. As Temu gains a bigger chunk in the market, they become formidable competitors, making it challenging for us to compete. This could potentially result in a loss of business for us but more importantly as Temu grows, they may exert pressure on suppliers, driving prices down and further promoting consumption. While Temu is associated with cheap prices and low-quality products, we prioritize investing in high-quality products and marketing efforts to emphasize their value, even if it means higher prices.
