We are the largest for-profit thrift operator in the United States and Canada based on number of stores. With over 22,000 team members, we operate a total of 317 stores under the Savers, Value Village, Village des Valeurs, Unique and 2nd Ave. banners.

The U.S. secondhand market, which is a subset of the broader retail market, was estimated at $35 billion in 2021. It is expected to grow to more than $82 billion by 2026. 

We are committed to redefining secondhand shopping by providing one-of-a-kind, low-priced merchandise ranging from quality clothing to home goods in an exciting treasure-hunt shopping environment. We purchase secondhand textiles (i.e., clothing, bedding and bath items), shoes, accessories, housewares, books and other goods from our non-profit partners (“NPPs”), either directly from them or via on-site donations (“OSDs”) at Community Donation Centers at our stores. We then process, select, price, merchandise and sell these items in our stores. Items that are not sold to our retail customers are marketed to wholesale customers, who reuse or repurpose the items they purchase from us. We believe our hyper-local and socially responsible procurement model, industry-leading and innovative operations, differentiated value proposition and deep relationships with our customers distinguish us from other secondhand and value-based retailers.

We offer a dynamic, ever-changing selection of items, with an average unit retail (“AUR”) price under $5.

We have a highly engaged customer base, with over 4.7 million active loyalty program members in the United States and Canada who shopped with us as of April 1, 2023, driving 69.6% of point-of-sale transaction value during the 12 months ended April 1, 2023.

As of April 1, 2023, we had 152 stores in the United States, 153 stores in Canada and 12 stores in Australia. We operate under five distinct store banners—Savers, Value Village, Village des Valeurs Unique and 2nd Ave.

In Canada, we operate 135 Value Village stores located in Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Prince Edward Island and Saskatchewan (nine provinces). Additionally, we have 18 stores in Quebec that operate under the Village des Valeurs brand. In Canada, we are the top-of-mind thrift retailer with 93% aided brand awareness.
