Ann Arbor-based Children's Orchard expands into adult clothing with Style Trader

Ann Arbor-based Children's Orchard, a children's clothing, toy and furniture resale shop with dozens of stores in more than 20 states, has expanded into adult and teen clothing for men and women with Style Trader.

The first Style Trader store opened July 14 in Livonia with plans for more to come. The expansion comes as Children's Orchard's sales have increased.

In its newest venture with Style Trader, the company hopes to appeal to its base of budget-conscious consumers looking to buy gently used name brands for all ages and both genders. It's using a concept that will give traders a discount should they choose to shop as well as sell.

"Style Trader is the first upscale resale store to cater to women, teens, kids, and men all under one roof," Taylor Bond, President of Style Trader and president and CEO of Children's Orchard, says in a statement announcing the store opening.

The Livonia store is located at 11502 Middlebelt Road and is 7,500 square feet of space filled with more than 20,000 pieces of merchandise.
