SHEIN will be operating its 'brat green' college-inspired truck at the CNE and various university campuses across the province of Ontario as part of a mobile pop-up initiative in Canada.
Starting "on August 28, the SHEIN truck will travel to five university campuses, including the University of Toronto (St. George), University of Toronto (Scarborough), York University, Western University, and Queen's University." During these visits, students can participate in t-shirt printing, browse current collections, and sign up to become campus ambassadors at their respective universities.
Following this, the truck at the CNE will be available from August 29 to September 2 where SHEIN will "showcase a variety of offerings, including apparel, home and living products, stationery, and accessories." Visitors will also have the chance to explore the latest SHEIN capsules, in addition to exclusive promotions and giveaways.
