What We Do
The Kid to Kid franchise offers their shoppers an upscale experience while shopping for new and gently used, name brand children's apparel, toys, books, shoes, baby gear and maternity wear. Unlike typical consignment, Kid to Kid pays their customers cash or offer in-store credit for gently used items and resells them at up to 70 percent less than found in traditional retail. This is recycling at its best as tens of thousands of items find new homes while helping communities stretch their budgets on stylish apparel or gear.
