What is Etsy?
Etsy is the global marketplace for unique, handmade, and vintage items. Founded in 2005, Etsy has grown to over 90 million active buyers who specifically seek one-of-a-kind products they cannot find anywhere else. Unlike general marketplaces, Etsy focuses on three categories: handmade items, vintage goods (20+ years old), and craft supplies. This specialized focus means buyers come to Etsy expecting to pay premium prices for unique finds.
