THE achievements of Australia's own Marcus Blackmore AM were showcased on the world stage last weekend, when he was inducted into the Hall of Legends at the natural health sector's biggest convention, Natural Products Expo West.
Taking place in Anaheim, California, the induction ceremony recognised the Blackmores executive director as an "icon of the natural health industry in Australia".
Carlotta Mast from the New Hope Network said "legends are individuals at the centre of stories about change - influencers who change the way we do what we do with enduring impact.
"For decades Marcus has fought hard for the regulation and rights of naturopaths and natural health products and established strong networks in Australia to protect freedom of health choice."
The award also celebrated the growth of Blackmores from "a small range of natural remedies to become the leading natural health company in Australia recognised across the Asia Pacific region as the most trusted brand in natural health.
"Marcus Blackmore is renowned for his commitment to natural health, his generosity, his entrepeneurial spirit and, above all, his passion," Mast said.
