About Us
Plato's Closet is an international franchise with over 300 stores throughout the United States and Canada. We are locally owned and operated in West Michigan, including the stores in Grand Rapids, Grandville, Portage/Kalamazoo, and East Lansing. We opened our first store in Grandville in 2005, and in February 2010 relocated it to a larger location with a new store design. In 2011, we expanded our East Lansing store but stayed in the same location so you don't have to look hard to find us!
Being lifetime residents of Michigan, we are proud to operate a business that helps keep our local economy strong and continues to provide employment opportunities in the community. If you are looking for work or know someone who is, go to the Jobs tab and print an application to bring with you on your next visit. While we aren't always hiring, we always accept applications and will contact you when interviews are available!
Thank you to all of our customers who help keep our stores growing, and thanks so much for selling your clothes! We always need them! I know it looks like we have a lot of clothing, but we will always need more!!
