Alexander Optical is Dylan Trepanier’s new company. Dylan plans to change the eye care business by setting up pop-up shops in larger companies or institutions who not only want to take care of their employees or students, but also want convenience, accessibility and affordability. Partnering with Vanessa Brown of Direct Visual Care, the two young entrepreneurs set up their first pop up shop in the Venture North Building last week as they prepare for their first big contract with a local institution. The concept is scalable and presents a great business opportunity for optometrists and opticians as well, so if you want more information just visit alexanderoptical.com for details.
