On behalf of the entire Winmark team, and our franchise brand of over 850 franchisees and 1,295
stores, we want to thank you for your initial interest in joining our family. As you may know,
Winmark Corporation is the proud leader of 5 resale retail brands that are family-friendly,
value-oriented and focused on community service. Our brands have been on the forefront of
sustainability by doing our part by building a business model around the idea of reducing the
amount of waste by giving consumers the chance to buy and sell gently used items. We are extremely
proud of our franchisees who represent our great brands in the US and Canada and are thrilled you
are interested in joining us.

The Style Encore® business model is stronger than ever! Women and men in their late 20s and older
want to connect with brands that share their values, are environmentally friendly and deliver
superior value to help them get the most for their money. At Style Encore, we believe in what we do
and our franchisees understand the importance of staying connected daily with their customers and
their communities.

Our mission is to be the preferred store for men and women who seek great style at a great price.
Unlike consignment, we pay cash to our customer for their gently-used casual and business apparel
and accessories, all day every day. While continuing to deliver high quality used merchandise in a
fun and convenient environment and doing good for our world as well.

At Winmark - the Resale Company®, our franchisees’ success is paramount to our own success, and we
protect those investments in our brands as if it were our own. We appreciate the confidence our
franchisees have placed in our brands, our support and our systems, and we work diligently every
day to continue to improve upon our past successes. We understand you have many options to invest
your hard-earned money, and we take our role as your financial stewards very seriously.

We appreciate you giving us the opportunity to tell you a little more about Winmark and what we
offer
our franchise partners. We hope that you will join us on your journey into business ownership!
