As we say goodbye to 2017 and hello to a New Year, we have a lot of successes to celebrate and new goals to achieve!
The demand and need of a home improvement outlet in our community is evident with over 18,000 donations a year and over 58,000 shoppers a year at ReStore. Year over year growth has resulted in one thing for our New Brighton location... We must expand!
