The Best Kept Secret in Nanaimo – Illuminations Lighting

Have you ever stumbled upon a retail store that you never knew existed and thought: “WOW! I wish I’d known about this place before”?

Well, according to Mark Smith, Sales and Marketing Manager with Illuminations Lighting Solutions, he’s heard this comment so many times from customers that he now refers to his retail location as the Best Kept Secret in Nanaimo!

Let there be Light!

Judging by the number of people in attendance at the latest Business After Business networking event hosted by Illuminations Lighting Solutions on March 25, this combination retail/commercial lighting store won’t be a secret any longer!

In addition to friendly ‘Illuminologist’ Meg Fraser, Sales Manager Mark Smith and Account Executive Brad Halliday (who has brave enough to be the subject of the video, above!) I had the pleasure of chatting with such fine folks as Dr. Shawn Thomas of Long Lake Chiropractic Centre, Ron Hanson from RKH Promotional Products, Reed Botwright from Hired Guns Creative, Sheldon Lee from Pre-Paid Legal Services, Walter Anderson from ITC Computers and Keith Davenport from U-Lock Mini Storage.

And with his trademark smile beaming from ear to ear, Wes Kukiela (now offering his expertise to the Nanaimo Arts Council) offered a great conversation and even introduced me to his Tae Kwon Do Master (yes – Wes has his black belt in Tae Kwon Do!).

So, if you’re looking for premium lighting fixtures for your home or if you’re a home builder looking to outfit a whole neighbourhood of homes, be sure to visit Meg, Brad, Mark and all the fine folks at Illuminations Lighting Solutions.

And if you haven’t checked out the Nanaimo Business After Business meetings offered from the Nanaimo Chamber of Commerce, then be sure to come out to the next networking event at Supporting Employment Transitions on April 29.

Yes, I have often experienced situations mentioned above. I will definitely recommend this to any friend doing up their shop.
