Competition / Market:

The business has very little direct competition in the local area.
Used goods stores have experienced swelling revenue through most of the five years through the end of 2023. These stores have historically performed countercyclically to the overall economy, but as income levels and consumer confidence surged early during the current period, used good store revenue continued to climb. Revenue also swelled because of changing consumer and fashion trends, leading to an influx of demand from young consumers. Moreover, numerous social media outlets and TV shows dedicated to altering or selling used merchandise have become popular through the end of 2023, driving consumer demand for used goods stores' products. However, these stores experienced substantial challenges amid COVID-19, pushing down used good store revenue in 2020.

Overall, used good store revenue will strengthen at a CAGR of 4.6% to $28.7 billion through the end of 2023, including a 1.1% swell in 2023 alone. During the current period, the number of used goods stores has edged upward. Various for-profit used good stores have joined the industry after being drawn by the expanding popularity among individuals for exchanging used goods for cash. Alongside the entrance of these used goods stores, the average profit margin will inch upward during the current period. In turn, nonprofit companies have been working toward shifting pricing strategies. However, the pandemic resulted in the exit of many used goods stores unable to weather the temporary closure of nonessential businesses. However, used goods stores with online operations have been successful, boosting employment 1.4% in 2020. The number of establishments has, however, inched downward at a CAGR of 1.3% to 77,525 companies through the end of 2023.

Moving forward, used goods stores revenue will continue expanding at a CAGR of 1.7% to reach $31.3 billion through the end of 2028. External competition will, however, likely continue to swell as families with higher income levels seek out new, rather than used, items. However, in response to heightened competition, used goods stores will become more specialized, carving out niches in high-quality, low-priced used merchandise, like designer clothing or musical instruments. –IBIS World
