In addition to being a thrift store and recycling company, De Lokatie is also a social enterprise that offers people with a distance to the labor market a day job or work experience. The De Lokatie Foundation was established with that idea in 1996. The aim is to boost the socio-economic opportunities of people with psychiatric or psychosocial conditions.
This branch of De Lokatie at Distelweg 85 in Amsterdam North has a lot of second-hand clothing and also sells books and furniture. Take the ferry to cross over to the North and enjoy some second-hand shopping! De Lokatie also has two other branches, another one in Amsterdam North and one in Amsterdam East.
The collection and sorting is handled by De Lokatie itself and locally. When you score a nice outfit here, you extend the life of the clothing and save CO2 emissions! Spend an afternoon looking around this store and find the best items.
If you have an Amsterdam Stadspas you get 25% discount on your purchase at De Lokatie. Would you like to hand in your goods or have them picked up by De Lokatie? Read how it works and what the conditions are here.
