Biz Buzz shares business tidbits from across the tri-state area. In addition to this update from Manchester, Iowa, we will share other developments in Wednesday’s edition.

MANCHESTER, Iowa — A Manchester consignment store has a new home.

New To You serves partially as a high-end consignment store, owner Abby Holtz said, but offers numerous items that could be found at a typical boutique. These include clothing lines, jewelry, candles and various home decor items such as accent lamps and rugs.

Cowgirls might consider stopping in.

“We gear toward some Western boutique wear,” Holtz said.

She said that most of her store’s product is intended for everyone. “All ages are welcome,” she said.

Holtz recently moved her boutique to the north side of Manchester at 1711 N. Second St. She said the new space has more than double the square footage of her former location at 100 N. Franklin St. in downtown Manchester.

Holtz already owned the new space — it was formerly The Gathering Place, her events business. She said bookings had slowed down at the venue toward the end of last year, making it a good time for a change by closing that business and moving New To You into a larger building.

“We decided it was a good time to say we’re no longer taking bookings and enter a new chapter in 2025,” she said.

Holtz said the new location is large and beautiful.

“It’s very modernized, very up-to-date,” she said. “It gives you a great feel when you come in. It’s a nice cozy space for shopping.”

Potential future changes to New To You include bringing in a menswear line, Holtz said. However, she said her inventory is always changing.

“We’re an ever-expanding business,” she said. “There’s always new products, new inventory.”

New To You’s regular hours are 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Wednesday through Friday and 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday. The shop is closed Sunday, Monday and Tuesday.
