The Reuters Sustainability Awards are renowned for celebrating
exceptional leadership in sustainable business.
For over 70 years, the Savers Value Village family of thrift
stores has encouraged communities to embrace secondhand shopping as
a sustainable choice. The company’s mission revolves around a
triple bottom line approach—people, planet, and profit—ensuring
that its operations generate positive impacts across all
sectors.
“Being recognized at the Reuters Sustainability Awards is a
testament to our mission to champion reuse and inspire a future
where secondhand is second nature,” said Mark Walsh, Chief
Executive Officer of Savers Value Village. “We believe that thrift
not only benefits individuals and communities but is also a vital
component of a sustainable future.”
In the last five years alone, Savers Value Village has
successfully repurposed over 3.2 billion pounds of reusable
clothing and household items, diverting them from landfills and
generating critical revenue for its non-profit partners to fund
their essential community programs.
As the secondhand market continues to gain traction, Savers
Value Village is poised to lead the thrift experience for years to
come, redefining retail and demonstrating that what’s good for the
planet is also good for business.
Sustainability Awards winners were determined on the basis that
the organization has been agenda-leading in sustainability in the
period January 2023 – June 2025.
