Opportunity Max

North Naples resident Michael Feuer, who built OfficeMax into a $5 billion office supply business, thinks the long-term economic health of Gulf Coast is on the mend.

So much so that Feuer (pronounced Foyer) thinks another type of health — the medical and wellness kind — will be his next blockbuster retail success. His plan revolves around Max-Wellness, a chain of retail stores he launched this year that will sell health products and support in a souped-up drug store-like environment.

“There is nothing like this in the U.S.,” Feuer tells the Review. “This is the first wave of a new wave in retail.”
