Dale was once part owner of a small group of ComputerLand retail stores and eagerly participating in the computer revolution. He helped executives grasp the time saving features of personal computers to manage their daily number crunching.

His vision evolved so that in 1991 he purchased Martindale’s from the original Martindale family. Now he is part of the health revolution and helps other people in their pursuit of better health along with his best friends here at the store.

Growing up in the area, Steve’s childhood friends and neighbors included relatives of the Martindale family. He recently celebrated his 50th high school reunion at Great Valley in Malvern.

His business career has spanned 13 years in manufacturing management, and 17 years developing and delivering software products to physician practices. He is now spending his encore years at Martindale’s as its president. Feel free to contact him about any issues regarding your experience at Martindale’s.

Before becoming an employee of Martindale’s in 1996, Joan remembers shopping here as a teenager with her father. Since 2005 she has led the staff as manager while working to provide a satisfying customer experience for our shoppers. After a breast cancer battle in 2009, Joan was able to complete her Certified Nutritional Consultant course work. This has both enriched her life and enabled her to better assist customers in their purchasing choices, especially those touched by cancer.

Mark has worked in the natural products industry since 1980. He was owner of Under the Sun Natural Foods in Paoli for 16 years before coming to Martindale’s in 1996.

He was eventually promoted to Sales Manager in recognition of his superior knowledge of natural products, his understanding of nutritional supplements, and his ability to use his insights to assist customers with health concerns. In this capacity, he serves to guide and assist our departments in purchasing, to ensure Martindale’s continues to offer the best in foods and healthy supplements.

Debbie’s early love of organic gardening, natural mothering, and healthy cooking caused her to come to Martindale’s initially as a shopper, then as an employee. Her own family’s struggle with food intolerances makes her especially helpful to those on special diets.

She counts it a great day when she learns something new about natural food and healing. Her love of learning has served her well in past years as Supervisor and Store Trainer. Now as Marketing Director, Debbie joyously advances the Martindale’s name in the store and beyond.
