Spotlight: Winmark - the Resale Company

Meet Winmark – the Resale Company… the “Seeing Green Solutionist of the Day” for August 8.

With a mission to “Provide Resale for Everyone,” Winmark has enabled more than 1.8 billion (!!) items to be recycled since 2010 across the company’s resale store brands: Plato's Closet (teen/young adult clothing), Once Upon a Child (children’s items), Play It Again Sports (sporting / fitness equipment), Style Encore (women’s apparel), and Music Go Round (musical instruments).

In their words…
“Long before resale shopping became a popular trend, Winmark was part of the circular economy, dedicated to minimizing waste by giving communities an easy way to buy and sell clothing, toys, baby gear, sporting equipment and musical instruments… Resale shopping offers people a tangible way to reduce waste and take part in a more sustainable lifestyle. It’s an easy, accessible way to upcycle no-longer-used items that can find their way into new homes without placing demand on clothing manufacturers.
