Who We Are

As one of the largest for-profit thrift operators in the United States, Canada, and Australia, our mission is to champion reuse and inspire a future where secondhand is second nature. We supply our stores with gently-used, one-of-a-kind items donated by the community to local nonprofit organizations. We purchase these items directly from our nonprofit partners, redirecting billions of pounds of used items away from landfills and onto our store racks and shelves for reuse, while providing our partners with valuable funding for their community programs. We are "Thrift Proud," supported by millions of loyal customers and over 22,000 team members across more than 300 stores. Learn more about the Savers family, our impact, and the #ThriftProud movement at savers.com.

Our brands include Savers (U.S.), 2nd Ave (U.S.), Value Village (U.S. and Canada), Unique (U.S.), Village des Valeurs (Quebec), and Savers Australia.
