Macomb County Shoppers Get an Updated Gratiot Avenue Store as Value World’s Metro Detroit Refresh Continues
CLINTON TOWNSHIP, Mich. The Value World thrift store at 33955 Gratiot Ave reopened recently with a brighter, cleaner look. The store is one of 10 Value World locations in Metro Detroit getting a refresh. Southgate, Warren, and Ypsilanti reopened ahead of it, and Westland followed.
Reopening day started with a ribbon-cutting. VIP Club members earned Double Rewards Points on every purchase that day.
The refresh brought new exterior signage, fresh paint, and improved merchandise displays. Everything else about the store stayed put, including the address and the big free parking lot.
The store sits up Gratiot Avenue from Macomb Mall, close to George George Memorial Park and the Michigan Lottery Amphitheatre at Freedom Hill. An easy stop between errands.

A Family Business Since 1955
Value World started with one store in Cleveland in 1955, and more than 70 years later, the founding family’s third generation still runs the company. It’s majority female-owned, too.
The company buys almost all of its inventory from nonprofits, recycling programs, and retailers. Its purchases from nonprofits have helped those organizations raise more than $50 million for their missions. More than 100 million pounds of goods have stayed out of landfills.
If you’re on Gratiot this week, check that day’s Color of the Day before you start on the racks.
