Fashion. Community. Sustainability.

Love Fashion & Retail?

Want to combine a love of fashion with a business opportunity that is not only good for your community, but also good for the planet? A sustainable franchise that is recession-proof? Plato's Closet continues its dominance as the leading national retail resale store of its kind, and we are looking for more passionate entrepreneurs who want to start their own business and share this journey with us. With over 500+ store locations throughout North America and new stores opening each month, our impact on our customers, communities and environment continues to grow as we reach millions of teen and twenty-something consumers. The brand is rapidly expanding, but there are still untapped markets across the US and Canada ripe for a new franchisee to establish their own Plato's Closet.

*The Average Store numbers are the 2022 Average Gross Sales and Average Gross Profit amounts stated in Item 19 of the 2023 Plato’s Closet® Franchise Disclosure Document (as reported by the 463 stores that had been in operation at least one year as of December 31, 2022). Of the 463 stores, 199 or 43% of the stores attained or exceeded the Average Gross Sales and Average Gross Profit. A new franchisee’s results will likely differ from these results.
