Shippensburg University has announced its partnership with the Student-Made Store in establishing an online platform for SU students to market and sell their products, according to an article by Ship News.
This new resource will be available for student entrepreneurs in the renovated Kriner Hall alongside the Charles H. Diller J. Center for Entrepreneurship Leadership and Innovation and the Mr. and Mrs. Milton K. Morgan III Makerspace. The store is set to launch in fall 2026.
According to their website, Student-Made is an organization that works with colleges and universities across the country to support and promote student creators. They pride themselves on being run by a team of students.
This service seeks to give student entrepreneurs the technical support necessary to produce products such as handmade clothing, bags, jewelry, art, stickers and more, according to the Ship News article. Student-Made’s technical support includes business strategy assistance in areas such as marketing, shipping, promotion and collaborations.
Additionally, Student-Made plans to select a team of student managers to run the Shippensburg University branch.
More information on the launch of Student-Made Shippensburg is to come.
