Here at Society58 we strive to foster a sense of school spirit amongst students, alumni and their families by providing affordable products and services for all customers. Society58 is a student-run retail service committed to serving the Queen’s community by providing students the opportunity to work part-time in inclusive and professional environment. We work with different organizations on campus and in the Kingston community to help them create custom goods to be used for conferences, staff appreciation, kept as mementos etc.
About us!
STUDENT RUN
We are an entirely student run service within the Alma Mater Society of Queen’s University, led by 5 full-time student managers, 3 supervisors and a team of 20 staff.
DESIGN
All of our designs are created by the Society58 team, ensuring our designs are unique and trendy, as the designers are also students! If you have any ideas for designs or products you would like to see, please reach out to our custom ordering manager Maya Perera at soc.custom@ams.queensu.ca. We want to hear from you!
Sustainable Packaging:
We are committed to continuously improving our operational sustainability through sustainable packaging and reducing waste. We prioritize operational sustainability by only using sustainable packaging made with 100% recycled materials, leaving you with zero waste!
In fact, our EcoEnclose poly mailers are both recyclable and reusable. You can learn more about sustainable packaging here: https://www.ecoenclose.com/Our-Sustainable-Packaging-Framework/
Transportation:
We are proud to say all of our suppliers are Canadian companies! By engaging in localized manufacturing and distribution, the the overall distance our products travel is reduced. In addition, our bus service that transports students to and from major Canadian cities helps us all reduce our carbon footprint.
Damaged Clothes
All damaged clothes are sold at a discounted price to reduce our overall waste and ensure none of our products are wasted!
