Modo is a clothing store in Grand Theft Auto IV and Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars located in North Holland, Algonquin, Liberty City.
Description[]
Located on the northwest corner of Vauxite Street and Exeter Avenue, Modo primarily sells sportswear and casual clothing that are considered to fall in the "mid-range" price category, halfway between the Russian Shop and Perseus. Modo's presentation is generally simple but tidy, with neatly organised rows of wardrobes. The cashier is a well-dressed young man named Mike, who comments that Niko looks like he was "in a Binco explosion", or was a past resident of Alderney, if Niko walks into the store wearing non-Modo clothing.
The cashier can be scared away if Niko physically attacks or threatens him. Money can be also taken from the cash register; the player can get about $9-$199 and an automatic 1-star wanted level. The alarm will go off if the player shoots around or opens the cash register, but only when the cashier is alive and still in the shop, providing a one-star wanted level in any way.
Like other clothing stores in GTA IV, Modo cannot be entered in The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony. The store is also present in Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars, but is also inaccessible.
The Radio Station that plays inside is the The Classics 104.1.
Influence[]
Modo is believed to be based on the famous clothing retail chain H&M.
'Modo' could be a reference to the Turkish, Polish, Spanish, Portuguese, Romanian, Bulgarian, Russian, Ukrainian, Slovenian and Serbo-Croatian word "moda" which means "fashion".

Trivia[]
- Modo is the only accessible location besides the Bank of Liberty in the campaign mission "Three Leaf Clover" that has an alarm system.
- It is possible to enter Modo in The Ballad of Gay Tony through a glitch and cheats. If the player spawns a Comet inside Modo's door through a cheat and then jumps onto the car and through the door, the player will find themselves inside Modo. The player can play QUB3D inside on the QUB3D machine but other than that, the store is non-interactive. To get out, the player has to kill themselves, reload a save file or replay a mission through the phone (if the story has been completed). This video will show you how.
- Kate McReary and Carmen Ortiz prefer Niko to wear clothes from Modo.
