A Growing Market
Every
year, the average child in America outgrows nearly $1,000 worth of
clothes, toys, and equipment. Although many of these items are still in
good condition, parents must replace them with expensive new ones. With
more than 40 million children under the age of 13 in the nation today,
the need for quality children's products at affordable prices is
steadily growing.
Our Approach
Today's consumers
want a bargain. But many parents would feel uncomfortable shopping for
their children in a second-hand store, even if prices were low. Kid to
Kid is successful because it creates an environment and offers a
selection that appeals to customers who otherwise would not shop in a
thrift store.
Everyone Wins
Kid
to Kid store owners are also different from most franchisees. Their
success is a natural result of meeting customers' needs. They understand
that participating in the Kid to Kid buying and selling process is a
win-win-win situation. Families win when they receive cash for recycling
their used children's products. Parents win as they purchase quality
used products at a fraction of retail price. And store owners win as
they reap the personal and financial rewards which come from dedication
and hard work.
