Second-hand clothing store, Zutphen

Company history/background

This second-hand clothing store is part of a chain that has been active in the trade of carefully selected second-hand clothing since the early 2000s. The first store opened in 2004, and since then the concept has grown into a national player with more than twenty branches spread across the Netherlands.

The branch in Zutphen opened its doors in 2014 and has been rooted in the local community ever since.

Moreover, in 2025, this company won the ABN AMRO Sustainable Award, a prestigious recognition for sustainable and circular retail concepts. A confirmation of their strong vision on responsible business.

Company activities

This shop specializes in the sale of high-quality second-hand designer clothing for both men and women. Every garment is carefully selected: clean, fresh, and in good condition, so that customers can find items that are virtually indistinguishable from new.

In addition, the store often offers customers the option to bring in clothing themselves for consignment. This service contributes to a circular and sustainable way of shopping.

Unique selling points

What makes this branch strong is the combination of fashion consciousness, affordability, and sustainability. By focusing on high-quality second-hand clothing, the company responds to the growing demand for eco-conscious shopping without compromising on style.

Furthermore, the formula is proven: with an average of 100 - 300 m² of retail space per location (and in this case approximately 200 m²), it is a relatively compact and well-organized store, which enables efficient organization and execution.

The branch also benefits from national name recognition, a well-developed concept, and purchasing and working methods that have already proven themselves elsewhere. As a result, you as an entrepreneur do not have to start from scratch.

Other

• This location is offered on a franchise basis. This means that the new owner becomes an independent entrepreneur but operates according to the established formula: you retain the proven concept, receive guidance, purchasing, and support from the organization behind the concept, and benefit from the existing structure.

• Thanks to the existing store, well-known location on the edge of Zutphen's historic center, and an established customer base, the acquisition offers far fewer uncertainties than starting a new store.

• Ideal for someone with a passion for fashion, sustainability, and local involvement who wants to start their own business, but would like to utilize a proven concept and nationwide support.
