From remedy to retail

Patrice Mousseau remembers the beginning of Satya Organic as deeply personal: a baby who rarely slept and a mother searching for relief. When her daughter Esme developed eczema at eight months old, a doctor prescribed topical steroids. Patrice wanted to explore what else might help, so she turned to the skills she knew best as a journalist: research.

Now on tap: Fragrance refills at Shoppers

Shoppers Drug Mart® has teamed up with L'Oréal Canada to bring something exciting to beauty in Canada: the first-ever multi-brand fragrance refill fountain. This new service is being offered in select BeautyBOUTIQUE by Shoppers Drug MartTM locations across the country and includes customer favourites like Lancôme Idôle, Giorgio Armani Acqua di Giò and Prada Paradoxe.

The beauty in being yourself

At the Shoppers Drug Mart® location at Bloor and Bedford in Toronto, Ambrose Doucette (he/him) has become much more than the store’s Beauty Manager. For more than 15 years, he has built lasting relationships with customers, team members and the community, creating what he fondly describes as “the little corner store we all love to go to in the neighbourhood.”

From the cash register to the starting line

Every year, the Shoppers Drug Mart® Run for Women brings together thousands of Canadians in 18 communities for a 5K or 10K run/walk series dedicated to supporting women’s mental health programs. From coast to coast, participants lace up their shoes and run or walk side-by-side, each step serving as a powerful demonstration of community, compassion, and hope.
