A grand opening celebration and ribbon cutting ceremony were attended by Mannatech executives including Wayne Badovinus, president and CEO; Al Bala, senior vice president, global sales development; and Dr. Stephen Boyd, senior director of medical affairs. Markham Regional Councillor Gord Landon was also in attendance along with many Mannatech Associates who were on hand for the festivities.

“We are very pleased to celebrate Mannatech’s growth and continued commitment to providing physical and financial wellness to Canadians and many others around the globe,” said Badovinus. “Expanding our presence in Canada allows us to interact directly with local Associates and consumers interested in our high quality wellness products and business-building opportunity.”
