Mario Fiorucci

Helping entrepreneurs jump the same hurdles I did.

I am a lawyer-turned-entrepreneur with a deep passion for business growth and strategy.  In early 2005, I left my Bay Street job to open a butcher shop, the first Certified Organic retail store in Ontario called The Healthy Butcher. Over the next 15 years, I expanded that business into 3 physical locations in Toronto and Kitchener, developed a custom platform online grocery delivery business, employing over 50 people.  Both businesses were acquired in early 2019, and I have been busy since then advising entrepreneurs, developing custom software apps, and developing real estate.  I love helping and working with smart people.  Let’s connect.

Sure, you can do things on your own…

...but time and mistakes are costly. Getting help from an expert who has been there before is a small investment in your business to make sure you are set up for growth and success!

About Me

I have degrees in Physics, Computer Science, and Law.  I have had the opportunity to practice Corporate Law at the highest level on Bay Street, before leaving to start my own business.

My strengths lie in the ability to see the whole picture and small details at the same time.  I love business strategy, growth, and tech as a whole.

I have been recognized for my accomplishments several times, including Ernst & Young’s Entrepreneur of the Year, ECR Excellence in Corporate Responsibility Award, Toronto Business Development Centre’s Excellence in Entrepreneurship Award, and my businesses have taken top honours in countless awards and competitions.  Currently, I’m writing a book to be released 2023.

I love to help smart people succeed.  If you and your business need any of the following, let’s connect.  Contact me via Email (mario (at) learningobsession.com) or LinkedIn.

What They’re Saying

Mario delivered with an efficient custom-built API platform to automate processes attached to Dear Inventory and Shopify, that used to take lots of manual labour. I highly recommend him for anyone looking to streamline their operations.

Mario has a very rare talent - to zoom in on the micro one minute while zooming out to the macro the next. His ability to focus on the small details that make a project or organization successful is guided by an appreciation of the bigger picture whether is macroeconomic conditions or consumer trends. He is relentless when tackling a problem. He is meticulous and process oriented. And as his track record founding and scaling the Healthy Butcher demonstrates, he can attract, retain and motivate a team towards a given goal.

Mario has a combination of drive, intelligence, and honesty which makes working with him a pleasure and profitable. If you need someone to manage top down with advice from legal to entrepreneurial, or to be in the trenches, gauging the needs of clients and employees alike, I would never hesitate in recommending him.
