Spotlight On ... Health Wise

Business background

Seaway Mall in Welland is home to a business that has successfully carved a niche for itself in the local health and wellness sector. Since opening its doors in 1989, Health Wise has provided courteous, informed, and personalized service and products that nurture a healthy community.

Throughout its 35-year history, the business has operated with the goal of delivering knowledge, resources, and items that empower individuals to take charge of their health and lead fulfilling lives. One of Health Wise’s hallmarks is its commitment to offering a range of Canadian-manufactured products because of their strictly regulated quality and as a way of supporting the national economy.

Central to the success of Health Wise is its team of knowledgeable and friendly staff. Well-versed on health and nutrition, the staff are proud of the trusted relationships they’ve established with many of the store’s loyal customers.

Beyond operating as a retail store, Health Wise is a long-standing provider of health-focused information. Julie Beaver, manager, hosts a weekly radio show on 610CKTB that addresses questions on health topics and natural ways to maintain health. Broadcasting for more than 18 years, the Health Wise Radio Show is one of the longest running radio programs dedicated to health education. It can be heard each Saturday at noon.

When a business successfully operates for as long as Health Wise, it’s inevitable they will grow and change in a physical sense. What first opened as a 1,200 square foot space has been relocated, renovated, and expanded over the years, always remaining within the Seaway Mall. Today, Health Wise occupies a generous, visually appealing area that includes a grocery section, kitchen providing nutritious and delicious meal options, and a catering kitchen for events.

Health Wise is proud of its a well-established reputation and attentive staff who are ready to meet the needs of health enthusiasts and shoppers seeking nutritional guidance.
