What Makes Winmark Different?
Since we started franchising in 1988, Winmark has built its reputation as the largest retail-resale franchisor in North America. Our franchisees can trust that our approach to this industry has been proven numerous times across our family of brands and that they will have the tools and resources they need to build stable, flourishing business.
Why do our franchise partners continue to succeed?
Ongoing Training & Support
When you sign a franchise agreement with Winmark, you will be enrolled
in our training program, which includes more than 65 hours of classroom
training. Your training will cover everything from store operations, customer
service, and much, much more. Once you've completed training, you will
continue to receive field operations and marketing and advertising support
from our Winmark franchise team, as well as educational opportunities
in regional meetings and at our annual conference.
Unique Role in Marketplace
Our Winmark retail-resale brands are specifically designed to fill an intermediate
place between high-end retail and low-quality secondhand stores and thrift
shops. Because we've focused on providing a high-quality product and experience
for customers, our franchisees have been able to cultivate both a budget-conscious
clientele and refined shoppers looking for the latest trends and brands
all at affordable prices.
Our Commitment to Franchisees
When Winmark looks for franchise partners, we're not looking for individuals
with decades of experience in the fashion or retail industry. Instead,
we're looking for people who are passionate about women's fashion and
offering something new, exciting, and affordable to their community.
Winmark often works with first-time franchisees that include family teams
(couples, parent/child) that are ready to work with us and seize a great
business opportunity. All of the industry knowledge, tools, and infrastructure
is provided by us.
