society zero

We are Glasgow's west end zero waste shop and social enterprise supporting disadvantaged communities within Glasgow to reduce their waste. As a Community Interest Company, we support the zero waste movement, encouraging Scotland to be greener, providing produce and products with no single use packaging, all the while supporting marginalised groups of society. We at Society Zero believe it isn’t just up to consumers to source out the plastic free produce though. We firmly believe that that produce and those products need to be accessible and available for people from all demographics to be able to make the right choices at real affordable prices that not only saves money for the buyers but also pays its staff real living wages. With no non-recyclable materials in sight, we only provide materials, produce and products which can be consumed with an ecological and environmentally friendly background. We only produce and provide packaging of which can be reused and recycled. Our aim is to encourage the circular economy and get rid of the fast-fashion/single-use attitude our country has grown so accustomed to in the last 50 years. We’re also unashamed to admit, this isn’t a new idea, as 50/60 years ago this was the ONLY way you could shop. We want to bring back the community feel to your shopping habits as well as doing good for the planet by helping you support your local businesses and community, from the ground up.
