Store team members, store managers, district managers and the regional management team work together to give our customers the best selection and shopping experience of any other thrift store in the world.

Store team members work in either the Production Department (where the merchandise is received, processed, priced, placed on the sales floor and "ragged off" when determined it is unsellable) or the Operations Department (our sales floor where the customers are able to select, try on, buy and exchange merchandise). Each store is led by a store manager and department supervisors.

District managers oversee as many as 12 to 13 stores in an assigned geographical market. The regional managers typically lead three to six district managers in their respective regions.
