Our Story | Bathala Scents and Natural Wellness Winnipeg

Our story · A proudly local Winnipeg business

We never planned to be big. We just wanted to share something made with heart.

Hello, and thank you for being here. We are Bathala Scents and Natural Wellness, a small, local business in Winnipeg, Manitoba that shares essential oils, fragrance oils, incense and crystal bracelets. This is the story of how a few bottles on a market table became a place our neighbours visit and trust.

Where it began: June 2021

In June 2021 we started the way many local businesses do, with very little and a lot of hope. With the guidance and mentorship of SEED Winnipeg, we took our first steps in local markets, where neighbours stopped, smelled, chatted and came back.

Starting small meant learning as we went. There were hard days, and days we wondered if we could keep going. Every kind word, every returning face and every small order reminded us why we started. We are not an overnight success. We are a story that grew one customer at a time.

Your support, and the honours we hold with gratitude

We are humbled that our community noticed us. We share these honours with thanks, because every one of them belongs to the people who supported us.
