It's almost time, on Thursday 16 February the thrift store will open RataPlan Arnhem her doors. Shoppers are welcome from 09:00 to score thrift bargains. There will also be an official moment, more about that later. The entire day there is cheerful music and tasty snacks are handed out for coffee and tea!
A second chance
Recycling store RataPlan Arnhem is exactly what you can expect from it, and more! Naturally, sustainability is paramount, looking at the possibility of a second chance for both people and the environment. Workplaces have been created for people with a distance to the labor market, who can contribute to the sale of second-hand items. By buying second-hand items, the mountain of waste grows slightly less quickly and mass production and overconsumption are reduced.
Coffee corner and RataPlant
In addition to the familiar range including clothing, books, art and curiosities, furniture and electronics, you will find at RataPlan Arnhem also one RataPlant department. Here customers can offer a second life to green friends by donating or buying them. You can also score a nice second-hand bike and when you need a well-deserved break, take a seat in the coffee corner for a nice cup of coffee or tea with cake!
'More than a thrift store'
RataPlan has been around for more than 40 years but continues to develop the concept of a recycling experience. So has Foundation RataPlan the concept of 'more than a thrift store', in which the shopping experience is at least as important, has been revived in 2020. Thrift shopping is a party, and we want our customers to experience that. Imagine yourself in a real thrift store and discover how nice it can be to support the environment!

We are very curious about this store in Arnhem and will definitely come and have a look every now and then.
And if the price is right buy it.
Just a question: Is the entire store wheelchair friendly?
And is there a wheelchair-friendly toilet?
My wife depends on that.
Good luck with setting it up!
See you soon
