## Story

The Goods Mart got its start eight years ago in California. Today, it has traded the West Coast for the East Coast as it operates its new flagship store in New York — it’s fourth ever store, but only current location. This single-store chain knows a thing or two about the power of reinvention, and it is doing big things with community partnerships and better-for-you products, and it even has a vintage section in the store.
