Value World

Our story begins in 1955, when our founder purchased our first location in Cleveland, Ohio. He wanted to serve his community by offering affordable, gently used items. A father of 3 young children, he worked day and night to support his family and make the store a success. It worked! Today, we have 12 thrift store locations throughout Ohio and Michigan. Each store offers a huge selection and fair pricing on quality items. Our goals haven’t changed: we’re still family-owned, and we’re still committed to taking care of our communities. We buy the items we sell from many sources, including municipal recycling programs, non-profit organizations and other retailers. Since we’ve been in business, we’ve helped support non-profits that help veterans, children and families in need. In fact, our purchases have helped them raise more than in support of their charitable missions. We’ve also helped save perfectly good items from being wasted. Over the years, we’ve kept more than pounds of items from going to a landfill. When you shop at Value World thrift stores, you help create a better way of living. For all of us.
