QUOTE OF THE WEEK:

“Thrift is definitely trending as a sector. We’re grateful for that because we use the proceeds from the goods sold in our stores to invest in programs that help people and communities.

 

Puerto Rico is a new market for us, with one store open and several others on the way, and the reception has been awesome.”

 

— Kent Kramer, CEO, Goodwill de Puerto Rico
