MEET OUR FOUNDER
THRIVE IS THE BRAINCHILD OF PHARMACIST AND BUSINESS OWNER LYNDA BRYANT.
Lynda completed her BPharm at Rhodes and also holds a Masters in Pharmacology from UKZN. Her entreprenurial journey started out at the age of 26 with buying a small community pharmacy, National Road Pharmacy in Kloof, Lynda grew the business slowly over the years to a much loved and well known pharmacy in the Upper Highway area of KZN. Seeing a need in the community for a place where all health needs could be met, she had a vision to make a difference in people’s lives and the environment and wanted to be able to provide a place where consumers could seek trusted opinions on their health and wellness. Thrive was born in 2016 and has grown from strength to strength expanding to include the communities of Ballito and Hilton. Thrive is focused on delivering excellent customer service, in convenient locations with well trained and trusted staff. Lynda explains, “I didn’t want the customer to feel overwhelmed with options in a Thrive store, I was looking to provide niche ranges of quality products . We also really wanted to focus on supporting our communities, our local suppliers, customers and fellow clinicians.” Thrive under Lynda’s leadership has been awarded many accolades over the years including Nedbank Professional Businesswoman of the year in KZN and nationally, Pharmacist of the year, Best community Pharmacy in South Africa and best Pharmacy Facility in South Africa.
Lynda is also a mom to two daughters, she loves Zumba, music, cooking and reading in her spare time. She is passionate about South Africa and contributing towards building our beautiful country.
