90s DressFlorida Thrift is a sustainable vintage and thrift store in Florida, Roodepoort, Johannesburg. Since 2018, we have rescued quality pre-loved clothing from landfills and given it a second life — making affordable, eco-friendly fashion accessible to all.
We believe fast fashion is unsustainable. Textile production generates massive global waste and landfill pollution. Florida Thrift exists to give high-quality pre-loved clothes a second life, rescuing iconic vintage pieces and making sustainable fashion affordable in Johannesburg.
Textile waste is a growing global problem — the UN Environment Programme estimates the fashion industry is responsible for up to 10% of global carbon emissions. Buying second-hand is one of the most effective ways to cut that footprint.

Florida Thrift runs a weekly Community Kettle feeding initiative in Florida, Roodepoort, sharing 100+ hot meals with families and homeless neighbours. Clothing donations and thrift sales fund the groceries. We also support 5+ Early Childhood Development centres with meals, clothing, and educational supplies for 200+ children weekly.
Florida Thrift isn't just about rescuing clothes — it's about feeding people. Every garment sold and every donation received helps us put warm meals on tables across Florida, Roodepoort and greater Johannesburg. This is thrift with a purpose.
Food insecurity affects millions of South African households. According to Statistics South Africa, nearly a quarter of households experience inadequate food access. Our feeding initiative is a local response to that need.
Every week, our team cooks and distributes hot, nutritious meals to families, elders, and homeless neighbours in the Florida community. From hearty soups in winter to full plates of pap and stew — nobody should go hungry on our watch. What started as a few plates has grown into a weekly community feeding effort that relies on the support of our thrift customers.
When you shop with us, you're not just buying vintage — you're helping us buy groceries, stock the kettle, and feed real people in Johannesburg. That's the heart of Florida Thrift.
When you donate clothing you no longer wear, we sort, grade, and sell the quality pieces in-store. The proceeds go directly toward buying food supplies for our community kettle. One bag of donated clothes can fund several warm meals.
A portion of every thrift sale is set aside for our feeding initiative. Whether you buy a R150 snapback or a rare designer jacket, you're helping us keep the kettle on and the plates full for families who need it most.
Drop off clean, quality clothing at our Florida store, shop our curated racks, or join us on feeding days. Everyone is welcome to be part of this community effort — no contribution is too small.
A child can't learn on an empty stomach. Florida Thrift supports Early Childhood Development centres across Roodepoort and greater Johannesburg — ensuring little ones get the nutrition, clothing, and care they need to grow, play, and thrive.
We supply ECD centres with weekly meal support — fortified porridge, fresh fruit, vegetables, and protein — so every toddler arrives ready to learn, not worrying about their next plate.
Donated children's clothing, jerseys, and blankets are distributed directly to ECD centres and families in need — keeping kids warm through Johannesburg's cold winters and ready for early learning.
Proceeds from the thrift store help ECD centres with educational supplies, safe play equipment, and educator support — because every child deserves a strong start, regardless of circumstance.
Bring your pre-loved clothing donations to our Florida store or message us on Facebook to find out how you can contribute to the next community feeding.

No — all purchases are in-person only. You can browse our catalog online and add items to a shopping list, then visit us to collect and pay at the till. We do not offer online checkout or delivery, because every piece is one-of-a-kind and needs to be tried on and inspected before you commit. As a result, the online catalog is a preview, not a shop. However, if you want a specific piece held until you arrive, message us on WhatsApp before you visit and we will set it aside for up to 48 hours. Because stock moves quickly, reserving in advance is the best way to guarantee a piece you love.
We run a weekly Community Kettle feeding initiative, sharing 100+ hot meals weekly with families and homeless neighbours in the Florida area. Clothing donations fund groceries for those meals. We also support 5+ Early Childhood Development centres with nutritious meals, warm clothing and educational supplies for 200+ children weekly. See our updates & events page for upcoming community feeding days and clothing drives.
Food insecurity affects millions of South African households. According to Statistics South Africa, nearly a quarter of households experience inadequate food access, and our feeding initiative is a local response to that need.

Florida Thrift is a sustainable vintage and thrift shop in Florida, Roodepoort, Johannesburg. Since 2018, we have rescued quality pre-loved clothing from landfills and given it a second life — making affordable, eco-friendly fashion accessible to all. In other words, every garment you buy from us is one less piece sent to a landfill. As a result, our customers save money and reduce their environmental footprint at the same time.
Textile waste is a growing global problem. The UN Environment Programme estimates the fashion industry is responsible for up to 10% of global carbon emissions, and buying second-hand is one of the most effective ways to cut that footprint. Because fast fashion discards garments after a few wears, choosing pre-loved pieces directly reduces demand for new production.

Next, message us on WhatsApp to confirm availability or reserve a piece, as a result you will not waste a trip. Then visit us at 4 Madeline St, Florida, Roodepoort. Finally, try on your picks, collect and pay at the till — in-person only.
