WHAT DOES OP-SHOP MEAN IN ENGLISH?

op-shop

Charity shop

A charity shop, thrift shop, thrift store, hospice shop, resale shop or op shop is a retail establishment run by a charitable organization to raise money. Charity shops are a type of social enterprise. They usually sell mainly used goods donated by members of the public, and are often staffed by volunteers. Because the items for sale were obtained for free, and business costs are low, the items can be sold at competitive prices. After costs are paid, all remaining income from the sales is used in accord with the organization's stated charitable purpose. Costs include purchase and/or depreciation of fixtures, operating costs and the building lease or mortgage.
