2nd Ave

2nd Ave is a for-profit thrift retailer established in 1954 that specializes in gently used clothing, accessories, and household goods at its King of Prussia location situated at 139 East Dekalb Pike. The company operates a “Rethink Reuse” business model that purchases, resells, and recycles items, diverting more than 700 million pounds of used goods from landfills annually while also supporting over 100 nonprofit organizations by purchasing donated goods from them to help fund their community programs and services. As a for-profit entity, shopping at 2nd Ave does not directly support nonprofits, though the company does partner with organizations like the Military Order of the Purple Heart Service Foundation through its donation program. The King of Prussia store features an organized layout with thousands of items organized by category and size, offering a wide selection of collectibles, toys, games, dishware, electronics, linens, books, shoes, and apparel for customers seeking affordable secondhand merchandise.
