About Us

Welcome to NUKIX, a homegrown Canadian venture, where our journey is as unique as the footcare solutions we provide. Our founders, Shaffin Haji and Danny Banayan, have combined their personal passions and professional expertise to revolutionize footcare concepts for a most cherished resource, our children.  

Shaffin, a certified Pedorthist, began his healthcare journey in 2003, with a mission to serve his community by offering quality orthopedic footwear and custom orthotics. His dedication led him to establish the well known foot clinic Ortho-Tech in Toronto, where he spent over twelve years. Today, he continues his work at Ortho Bliss Systems, providing exceptional footcare solutions.

Throughout Shaffin’s time in patient care, the focus hasn’t solely been on clinic growth, it’s been about touching lives, making a difference, and leaving a lasting impact. He’s also played a key role in his professional community by training and certifying 8 Canadian Pedorthists, ensuring the quality of care continues.

Now focusing on NUKIX, he’s committed to providing footcare solutions that genuinely improve lives, one step at a time.

Danny has been a trailblazer in children’s footwear for over forty years. His journey started with a deep passion for helping the younger generation, moving from humble beginnings in retail to remarkable achievements in footwear manufacturing. Eventually, he created his own line of orthopedic children’s shoes.

Over the years, Danny has worked closely with pediatric specialists designing and fitting corrective footwear. Today, he represents three prominent kids’ shoe brands and continues his ongoing commitment to children’s foot health.

Genesis of NUKIX:

The creation of NUKIX was fueled by a shared concern for preventative care. During his clinic years, Shaffin saw many patients with severe flat foot conditions, some requiring surgery due to delayed intervention.

This was a heartbreaking realization, knowing early detection could have changed their outcomes. The real turning point came when they discovered online communities filled with thousands facing similar issues. This ignited a passion to make a tangible difference.
