Welcome to Our Mission

Welcome to THRIFTMA, East Orange's premier thrift store where sustainability meets affordability. Our mission is to offer high-quality, previously owned merchandise at prices that fit every budget, while fostering a sense of community and supporting local initiatives.

Inspiration Behind THRIFTMA

The inspiration to start THRIFTMA came from a deep-seated motivation to create a positive impact on both our community and the environment. We saw an opportunity to provide affordable, stylish, and functional items for everyone, while also promoting sustainable living by giving pre-loved goods a second chance. Our founders were driven by a shared passion for thrift shopping and community building, which paved the way for the establishment of THRIFTMA.

Supporting Our Local Community

At THRIFTMA, we believe in the power of community. We are dedicated to supporting our local East Orange neighbourhood through various initiatives and partnerships. By offering affordable merchandise, we ensure that everyone has access to quality goods. Moreover, a portion of our proceeds is invested back into community projects and local non-profits, helping to create a stronger, more connected community.

Our Core Values

The core values of THRIFTMA are the foundation of our business and guide every decision we make. We operate under the principles of quality, sustainability, and community.

Quality is at the heart of everything we do at THRIFTMA. Each item in our store undergoes a thorough inspection process to meet our high standards. Our dedicated team meticulously checks every piece of clothing, accessory, home good, furniture item, and electronic product for defects and overall condition. This rigorous vetting process ensures that our customers receive only the best, previously owned merchandise that they can trust and cherish.
