Owned and operated by Krystyna Kwiecinski, an experienced professional in non-profit retail enterprises, The Canadian Purchasing Collective is an essential source of knowledge and reliable systems that help hospital gift shops drive profitability to financially support their hospital and its mission.
Started as a one hospital pilot, we invested a full year to truly understand the intricacies of operating a hospital gift shop while demonstrating the success our services provide. Since then, we have helped gift shops not just improve their bottom line through better selection of merchandise and customer experience, but also generate a more positive image and enthusiasm among volunteers, staff, administrators, patients and visitors.
