Local Consignment shop aims to grow business within the community

BRIDGEPORT, W.Va (WDTV) – “The store has been here for 12 years; I actually purchased it from the first owner 7 years ago, so it’s been mine for 7 years. It’s consignment, they get money once it sells. I take a little bit of everything here, have something for everyone. I have kid’s, men’s, women’s, formals, shoes, purses, jewelry, baby gear; just a little bit of everything here,”

Kathy Bryan and her Cool Kid’s Consignment shop has been serving the community of Morgantown for over a decade. During the 12 year period the business has been open; the shop has aimed to provide a location where customers can come in to buy or sell some of their un-wanted items, for a reasonable price. Consignment shop’s are a bit different than thrift stores; as the owners of the items still get a profit after their item is sold in the store. Which makes this not only an opportunity to benefit customers, but also the greater community.

” I have something for everyone; it’s not just kid’s, it’s not just women. I have a combination the whole family can come here and shop. Our economy right now is the big issue; this store should be busy all day every day because of the pricing that is happening out in our world. I try to take the best, I do my pricing, so I know you can come in and afford it. And when you shop here know that I have tried my best to take the best.”

What makes Cool Kids a little different than other consignment shop’s; is their ability to cover any and every one of their customers needs. Offering a diverse selection to any customer that could walk through their doors at any given moment.

” I love when I see the mommies come in, and then I get to watch the baby grow up. Because I have maternity clothes, then they have the baby, and you get to watch the baby grow; I love that part. I also love the prom, homecoming. They come in, try the dresses on. I get to help, I love it.”

Growth is an important to part to any successful business and shop’s like Cool Kid’s aren’t any different. Therefore, as a customer you could possibly– not only be investing in your own pocket’s, but also in the growth of a local business.

” I do plan on doing this as long as I possibly can; and I just hope I continue to grow and people keep coming. I do need people to come shop.”
