Our mission

Krrb is a safe place to buy, sell, trade and give to your neighbors — locally and in-person.

Most online shops and classifieds feel anonymous, and let's face it, they are. Krrb.com is made exclusively for local and in-person commerce. Our mission is to create a fun, friendly and safe online venue that enables better and more personal face-to-face dealings between neighbors.

In short, our aim is to help turn local strangers into friendly neighbors.

Think of Krrb as an online garage sale, block sale, flea market and local classifieds where second-handers, crafters, collectors, designers, artisanal food-makers and common folks can easily connect — taking advantage of all that the Internet has to offer — while retaining a personal and face-to-face relationship.

Krrb puts you at the center of your stomping grounds and displays all that you and your neighbors have to offer. That's our singular role and we plan to make a business of it. The rest is up to you.

In the beginning...

Krrb was created by AREA 17, an interactive agency in New York City and Paris, France. The truth of the matter is that we're a bunch of geeks that believe that the Internet has the ability to foster communities and bring people together. Cheesy, we know, but we are part French after all. Speaking of, check out Slash.fr, an art agenda and guide for Paris.
