Company Background

Founded in Edmonton, Alberta by Mark Holowaychuk, Vitamart.ca is the #1 online only specialist offering health and wellness supplements in Canada. As a health enthusiast and avid gym goer, Mark understands the world of healthy living and using proper nutrition and supplementation. He also is extremely passionate about online shopping and creating the absolute best customer service experience on the internet for anyone who was a guest as his store.

Tired of overspending on health supplements? Mark definitely was! After years spending time and money driving to various health stores and when he got there having staff know barely anything about the products they are selling, then drastically getting overcharged for all types of products - he knew there must be a better way. Turning to the internet he began shopping at various Canadian online stores and realized they weren’t offering the ideal mix of price, product, selection and most importantly the service he was looking for.

BuffMuscleStuff.com was launched shortly after in 2005, initially offering the most popular brand names in bodybuilding supplements. Over the course of the next two years, Mark realized that in order to be able to share the website with everyone the name must have a broader appeal so in 2008 LivePureHealth.ca.ca was born. Its mission: to offer the lowest prices Canadians will find online, along with the convenience of fast, free shipping and the best customer service on the planet. Standing behind this mission, he made it easy for customers to contact his team of highly qualified customer service health professionals email.

While everything with LivePureHealth.ca was going great on the customer service and sales side of the business, the name LivePureHealth.ca just didn't feel right. It had the right words, but seemed to be mispronounced on a regular basis with many calling it "Live" Pure such as in "Live" Music. This prompted a search and after over a year of scouring the net for names Vitamart.ca was born!

In just a few short years, Vitamart.ca has solidified its place a top the health store industry in Canada and has continued to do whatever it takes to WOW its loyal legion of customers who we call the Vitamart Family.  (Click here to view actual Vitamart family testimonials)

THE BEST DEAL

Many often ask how Vitamart.ca can offer such competitive prices with fast free shipping and the customer online health store customer service on the planet...

First, it is large enough that it can buy large volumes directly from many of the major manufacturers, including PVL, 4Ever Fit, and Progressive.

Second, it buys and offers bulk sizes that many traditional brick and mortar stores don't have the shelf space to carry. Bulk sizes are ordinarily significantly cheaper on a per serving basis.

Third, it has set up exactingly efficient operations in their warehouse in central Alberta.

Fourth, with its growing volume, it has negotiated substantial discounts with Canada Post and other national carriers.

Finally, it operates online only. Who do you think pays for your brick and mortar health stores inflated rent, sales staff, and other substantial operating costs that an online store doesn’t incur? You do!

Vitamart.ca Staff Bio

MarkHolowaychuk - Owner

I have always been interested in health and fitness. As I was younger I will be honest it was more so to look good and attract girls, but as the years have gone there has been a definitely shift to feeling better, not just looking better and practicing a balanced healthy lifestyle.

Customer service is a personal passion of mine as is the internet, which is why Vitamart is so close to my heart. Creating a business such as vitamart that allows us as a team to provide the absolute best in customer service and the ability to reach all of Canada through the internet to help them achieve their health and fitness goals is something very special.

I genuinely care if you have an amazing experience at our store and I care even more if you have any experience less than a 10/10. That is the truth! lol

So when I am not working my other passions include travelling, staying active and above all else spending time with my friends and family.

I hope you enjoy your experience at Vitamart.ca and want to welcome you to the Vitamart family!
