Society Zero CIC Reviews | Rating 4.9 out of 5 stars (5 reviews)

Society Zero CIC is located in Glasgow, United Kingdom on 162 Queen Margaret Dr. Society Zero CIC is rated 4.9 out of 5 in the category grocery store in United Kingdom. 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.

I haven't been lucky enough to visit the shop in person, but have ordered from their online shop and followed all the updates. The shop looks fantastic and the products I received were great. The guys are really innovative at finding new ways to bring fresh products/food to you, whilst aiming to be as sustainable as possible. Highly recommend!

Love the shop - great selection of food and household/personal care items at competitive prices without the unnecessary packaging. Buy as much or as little as you need, and let's not forget the yummy pastries and fresh organic veg!

Great wee shop with very helpful staff, loads of dried cupboard staples, herbs, tea, zero waste toiletries and cleaning supplies and some greengrocer produce and fresh bread too! I always pop by when I'm out of eggs or lentils. Staff are super helpful. If you're very allergic to nuts though it might not be good for you as they sell those loose and cannot guarantee traces won't be in other items, they have a warning on the door regarding this.

Absolutely love Society Zero! Been to a few of their stalls and always try to bring along friends and family to encourage them to invest in some reusable items. They have a great selection of some of my favourite brands and some amazing local Scottish stuff too! Definitely take a trip by if you’re ever in the area when they’re out and about.
