Why Children's Orchard?
Our market is even bigger than Fast Food!
The children's market is huge and growing: Already at $200B, it's bigger than fast food. Each year there are about 200,000 MORE children to clothe than the year before! And the resale sector, with annual growth rates between 5% and 10%, is growing faster than any other retail segment.
Great margins = great opportunity.
If you're like most, you want to cut to the chase. So we will. Children's Orchard businesses sport terrific operating margins: the kind of operating margins most retailers would love to have, and a big reason to own your own Children's Orchard business.
A wonderful customer that just happens to be our primary supplier.
Moms looking for quality clothing at a great price: that's our customer. Moms are not only our customers; they're also our primary suppliers. They sell us the items their kids have outgrown at a fraction of their original price. In short, we create a tidy circle that helps us to attract and keep more moms...
