HIGH-END WOMEN’S CONSIGNMENT BOUTIQUE TO OPEN FIRST FRANCHISE

The Closet Trading Company®, which operates four high-end women’s consignment boutiques in Southern California, today announced the grand opening of its first East Coast boutique in Plantation, Florida. The company began franchising in 2019, and the new South Florida store will be the company’s first franchise location to open.

The Closet Trading Company sells preloved contemporary designer clothing, shoes, and accessories for women, and specializes in current, on-trend styles from designer and premium labels. The company’s existing locations include Santa Monica, Agoura Hills, Santa Barbara, and Woodland Hills, California.

New owner Gabriela Hernandez will operate the Florida franchise location.

“I’m thrilled to be launching this new business that combines my love of fashion with my drive to contribute positively to the environment, by giving pre-loved, high-end garments a new life. I’m looking forward to bringing my passion to the South Florida community and welcoming shoppers to my boutique for an exciting and potentially habit-forming shopping experience,” said Hernandez.

In the South Florida boutique, shoppers will find mainstream brands like Lululemon, Free People, and Rag & Bone, as well as an extensive selection of luxury pieces from Chanel, Hermes, Louis Vuitton, and more. Items can be purchased for about 70% off retail prices.

Founded in 2003 and franchising since 2019, The Closet Trading Co. is a highend resale and consignment store that specializes in contemporary to luxury designer clothing, shoes, and accessories for women. There are four boutiques open throughout Southern California and one franchise location in Plantation, Florida.
