A Couple Who Uplifts Us
Some connections grow quietly over time, built on shared values, mutual respect, and a genuine love for community. This wonderful couple is one of those rare blessings for us at Bathala. Supporters who have been with us for many years, whose presence always feels familiar, comforting, and deeply appreciated.
They live in Selkirk, yet every visit feels like a homecoming. When they stopped by recently, they shared how much they had been looking forward to Black Friday, not for the rush or the discounts alone, but for the chance to intentionally support local businesses, especially those lovingly crafted right here in Winnipeg. Hearing that reminded us that behind every purchase is a choice, and behind every choice is heart.
As owners of their own advertising agency, they understand firsthand how challenging it can be for small businesses to survive and thrive. They know the long hours, the unseen effort, and the care poured into every product and decision. That understanding makes their support even more meaningful. They don’t just shop, they see the story, the intention, and the people behind the brand.
Their journey with Bathala began at the St. Norbert Market, where they first discovered our Relax & Unwind and Ease & Loosen roll-ons. From that moment on, our creations became part of their everyday rituals, small comforts woven into busy lives. Though they often shop online, the holiday season always brings them into the city to gather gifts for loved ones, and during those visits, stopping by our little store has become a cherished tradition.
Each time they walk through our doors, they bring warmth with them, easy smiles, kind words, and genuine encouragement that lifts our spirits more than they know. In moments when running a small business feels heavy, seeing familiar faces like theirs reminds us exactly why we do what we do.
To this incredible couple, thank you. Thank you for your loyalty, your belief in local, and your unwavering support. Thank you for being part of our Bathala family and for reminding us that community is built not just through transactions, but through relationships, understanding, and shared kindness.
Bathala is more than a store, it’s a meeting place for stories, friendships, and heartfelt support.
