Our Story
Sonsuh Educational Supplies began in 1992 at the family home of Raju and Bindu Shah. Raju, Bindu, and their two young daughters had come to Canada just a year prior from Nairobi, Kenya. Bindu was inspired by her love of teaching and wanted to continue her passion for educating young minds here in Toronto. Bindu began the company by selling educational products out of the basement of their home. By 1993, the business was expanding and the need for a large space was imminent. In November of that same year, our convenient superstore location at 448 McNicoll Avenue was opened and is still thriving today. In 2023, we happily celebrated 30 years in business!
Our Mission
We work hand in hand with teachers and daycare staff to supply the widest selection of relevant teaching materials such as arts & crafts supplies, books, puzzles, games, infant-toddler toys, classroom décor, sensory & special needs items, multicultural materials, as well as classroom furniture, carpets, and storage products. Working closely with suppliers, we are diligent in keeping prices as low as possible, as well as ensuring products arrive safely, and in a timely manner. Products are purchased from suppliers of good standing and are tested with the highest standards and manufacturer’s guarantees. Sonsuh Educational Supplies follows Health and Safety Canada standards, and stands by products supplied, ensuring these products are of the highest of quality. We are always looking for new ways we can work with you to keep young minds motivated and interested in learning!
