The world of second-hand shopping is set to get a boost with the announcement of Savers’ third store in New South Wales, the Australian thrift superstore. With its unique blend of affordable prices, quality products, and eco-friendly ethos, Savers is poised to become a go-to destination for thrifters and environmentally conscious shoppers alike. •
- Located in the heart of Auburn, near the Auburn Megamall, the store will be a prime spot for those looking for second-hand goods.
- The store will be easily accessible by public transportation, with several bus routes and a train station nearby.
- The Auburn store will sell thousands of items, including clothing, accessories, and home goods, with the majority priced under $10.
Savers Australia managing director Michael Fisher expressed his enthusiasm for the new store, stating that the brand has seen significant success with its existing stores in Prestons and Darlinghurst. “We’ve seen an incredible response to our Hoxton Park and Oxford Street stores, and Auburn is the perfect next step in our expansion,” Fisher said. Auburn is a prime location for the new store, given its proximity to the Auburn Megamall and the busy Parramatta Road. The area is already a hub for shopping and entertainment, making it an ideal spot for a new thrift superstore. With thousands of second-hand items on offer, Savers is poised to become a major player in the Auburn market. The new store is not only a boon for shoppers but also for the environment. Savers estimates that its stores divert millions of kilograms of textile waste from landfills each year. With the new Auburn store, Savers aims to continue its mission to reduce waste and promote sustainable shopping practices. Savers Partnerships
Savers has partnered with several not-for-profit organizations, including the Diabetes Innovation and Impact Foundation (DIIF), to make a positive impact on the community. The new DIIF partnership will help drive meaningful change in diabetes care and prevention. *

Through its partnership with DIIF, Savers will accept donations on behalf of the organization, helping to fund programs in the local community. This innovative approach allows Savers to make a positive impact while also promoting sustainable shopping practices.
“Innovation and collaboration are key to tackling the growing challenges of diabetes, and this partnership not only helps us raise essential funds to advance research and prevention but also creates a sustainable model for long-term impact,”
said DIIF CEO Glen Noonan. The Auburn Community Donation Centre was opened on April 12 for locals to donate pre-loved clothing and household items before the store’s opening. This initiative encourages early donations and allows Savers to begin accepting pre-loved goods for the new store. A Statement from Savers
