A New Year, A New Beginning

By: Jennifer Peterson When I think of a natural food co-op, my very first thought is that it provides healthy and natural foods with something for everyone that is seeking to live a healthier lifestyle. With a Wellness section that provides high quality Health Supplements and Natural Products is its defining signature. At Ever’man our Wellness Department ties our entire Grocery Store together to give you a perfect shopping experience by supplying all your health needs in one great place.

Lyn Sparks is our Wellness Manager at Garden St and is currently overseeing our Nine Mile location as well. She has been with Ever’man for 19 years! When you meet Lyn, you will find her to be an exceedingly kind and friendly lady who is knowledgeable in all things “Wellness” and will warm your heart with her smile and lovely Scottish accent. I sat down with Lyn and we chatted for a bit and this is a short interview we had together.

What makes your products stand out from conventional grocery stores?

We have high product standards and a large selection of Health Supplements. Of course, we have high quality vitamins that is simply expected that we carry items as such, but we have so much more. We have high quality Powdered Nutritional Supplements, Essential oils, Natural Lotions and Soaps. We also carry Natural and Organic Skin Care Products for your face along with having a make up area where you can test products.

What are your best-selling items in your department and why do people choose them?

There are many trends that happen in our department. Collagen is the “one” at the moment. Our customers notice the benefits of Collagen overtime. Zinc, Vitamin D, Vitamin C and Elderberry are big items right now.

What would you like to see happen in the grocery industry in the future?

I hope we continue to get the quality items that are available to us now and that people will continue to educate themselves on the benefits of living a healthier lifestyle.

Why should people choose to shop at Ever’man and come see you?

Customer Service is especially important to us. We work closely with our Reps from our various companies to get the trainings we need to be able to explain their products to our customers. Trainings are important to us so that we may continue to provide quality and knowledgeable service.

Statement from Lyn:

We hope you will come and visit us at Nine Mile. We have a dedicated staff that wants to show you our products. We add new products all the time and keep up with the trends. If there is something we don't carry, we will check and see if it is something that fits our product standards and do our best to accommodate you.
