Our Story
Morcor Computers began in July 1996, when brothers Greg and Bryant Morawek started repairing computers out of their parents’ home. At the time, the computer industry was still in its infancy, with growing excitement around the emerging “Super Information Highway” that was poised to change the world. Windows 95 was the leading operating system, and personal computing was rapidly becoming essential.
As business expanded, the brothers saw the need for a true storefront. In September 1997, they opened one of the first independent computer retail stores in St. Catharines and the Niagara Region. This first location was at 50 Hartzel Road in the former Secord Plaza (now the Hartzel Animal Hospital).
With a permanent retail space, Morcor Computers broadened its offerings—adding more retail products and becoming one of the first local providers of dial-up internet service through iTCANADA, an early independent ISP.
As the Hartzel Road / Secord Woods area continued to grow with new homes and businesses, Morcor Computers thrived alongside it.
In May 1999, the business briefly closed before reopening as Morcor Computers 2000 Ltd. under new ownership, but with the same trusted staff. Store Manager Bryant Morawek remained with the company throughout the transition.
By early 2003, the plaza was sold and renovated, requiring another move. Fortunately, the business stayed close to home: when Cogeco Cable relocated to the Pen Centre, Morcor Computers moved into their former space at 20 Hartzel Road, Unit #7 in Centennial Plaza—keeping our roots firmly in the Hartzel/Merritton community.
Celebrating 30 Years — and Looking Forward
In July 2026, Morcor Computers will proudly celebrate its 30th anniversary, making us one of the oldest independent computer retail stores in the Niagara Region.
We look forward to the future—and even to celebrating our 50th anniversary. Technology will continue to evolve in exciting ways, and Morcor Computers will always strive to stay at the forefront of innovation.
