“We are pleased to continue our expansion in the Greater Toronto area in these two prime locations. Richmond Hill is a stable well established community and one of the wealthiest suburbs in Ontario. Their consumer demographic is well suited for our business model. The Markham location is also quite attractive as it is the high tech capital of Canada and the seventh largest municipality in Ontario.” stated Robert J. Oswald, President of HearAtLast. “This dual opening further proves that we are streamlining our expansion capabilities as we grow the business.” Oswald added.
The addition of the Richmond Hill and Markham stores brings the current count of HearAtLast clinics co-located in Wal-Mart Stores to 10 locations in Canada, five of which are located in the Greater Toronto Ontario area.
