Het Natuurhoekje expands organic food and drugstore range

Het Natuurhoekje, a specialty store located in Heythuysen, has successfully expanded its business model to combine organic food products with an extensive drugstore assortment. Founded in 2009 by owner Marlies Thiessen, the shop grew from a 65-square-meter space into a larger establishment due to increasing customer demand.

Thiessen, who previously managed webshops specializing in gluten-free, sugar-free, and lactose-free products, focused on providing a personalized shopping experience that differs from traditional supermarkets. Alongside her daughter Kim, who provides health advice, Thiessen is currently exploring further opportunities for business expansion. In 2015, the store was recognized as the best organic shop in Limburg.
