NEW STORE LOCATION OPENING FOR BUSINESS AT 3656 MASSILLON ROAD
Green, Ohio—April 3, 2025— Goodwill Industries of Akron is excited to announce the opening of its new Retail Store in Green, located at 3656 Massillon Road (former InfoCision space). The organization has actively sought a location in Green for over 15 years, making this expansion a significant milestone. “At Goodwill, we believe in the power of work to transform lives, and this new Green location will help us continue that mission!” said Nan McClenaghan, President & CEO. “Every purchase and donation to Goodwill directly supports individuals in our local communities as they work toward achieving their employment goals.”
To celebrate, Goodwill will host a Grand Opening Celebration on Wednesday, April 9, 2025. The event will kick off with a ribbon-cutting ceremony at 8:30 a.m., followed by giveaways, food and other festivities from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. The first 100 customers will receive a reusable Goodwill shopping bag, and shoppers can hunt for 10 hidden Goodwill coupons, which can be redeemed at random for a $10, $20 or even a $100 Goodwill gift card!
As an added excitement, guests can enter a grand drawing for a $200 Goodwill gift card—no purchase necessary. Additionally, to show appreciation for our loyal shoppers, the Green Retail Store grand opening will be a bonus Customer Loyalty Day (exclusive to Green), where Goodwill Club Members will earn double points on purchases, excluding new goods, made on that day.
The new 10,000-square-foot store offers the same quality items at affordable prices that Goodwill shoppers expect while also serving as a hub for community resources. It features a free self-serve Job Search Station, a community conference room and a drive-up donation center. Additionally, the store will serve as a training site for Goodwill Vocational Program participants, providing hands-on experience in retail operations.
With this addition, Goodwill Industries now operates 17 retail locations, including nine in Summit County. Net proceeds from sales directly support Goodwill’s mission of helping individuals prepare for, find and retain employment. Store hours are Monday–Saturday, 9 a.m. – 8 p.m., and Sunday, 10 a.m. – 6 p.m.
