MONTREAL, Oct. 17, 2019 /CNW Telbec/ - Stéphane Fiset, a Uniprix-affiliated owner-pharmacist, has moved into a new location that offers his patients and customers a more modern space that is more focused on customer experience.
Still serving the Tétreaultville neighbourhood
This relocation comes in response to a request from the real estate group that owns the shopping centre where the pharmacy was originally located. A major concern for Mr. Fiset was to be able to continue to serve his clientele of the last 22 years, hence why his new pharmacy remains in the Tétreaultville neighbourhood of the Mercier-Est borough. "Over the past two decades, I have developed strong relationships built on trust with my patients, and today I am very proud to be able to offer the people in my neighbourhood a new pharmacy concept. We are the first of its kind in Montreal and the sixth in Quebec," Mr. Fiset explained. "The customer experience will still be based on these three core values: trust, professionalism and the ability to listen."
"By adopting this new concept, which includes adding a new Halte Santé, Mr. Fiset and his team of professionals will be better positioned to play their role as family pharmacists and do more for the Tétreaultville community and those who live farther away," explains Alain Arel, President and General Manager, Uniprix and Proxim. With the real estate developers' contribution, a total investment of more than $1.7 million was needed to make this project possible. The pharmacy was expanded by 800 square feet and today features a cosmetics area worthy of a high-end boutique.
