A Passion
for Partnership
If there is one word that sums up Specsavers,
better than any other, it is partnership.
Since 1984, when optometrists Doug and Mary Perkins opened the first Specsavers stores in
the UK, the commitment to working in partnership with eye care professionals has delivered
success to thousands of Specsavers business-owners as they care for the eye health of
over 40 million people across almost 2000 optometry businesses in 10 countries.
Almost 40 years on, our passion for partnership burns as brightly as ever as we take our first steps into
the exciting Canadian optometry market, in partnership with British Columbia’s Image Optometry.
And now we are looking forward to building on our heritage to develop a local
Specsavers brand with a Canadian accent – one that delivers accessible and
affordable eye care to local communities throughout British Columbia.
Eye care professionals interested in business ownership with Specsavers – especially
those already in B.C. - can now find out more about our immediate plans and
how the Specsavers partnership model continues to deliver sustainable success
for literally thousands of Specsavers partners around the world.
