Our Story

HICO Candle Co. was born in the heart of historic Hico, Texas, where tradition meets innovation. Nestled in a beautifully restored turn-of-the-century hardware store, our factory serves as both a nod to the past and a testament to modern craftsmanship. With a small, dedicated team of skilled artisans, we pour our passion into every candle, ensuring each one reflects our relentless pursuit of perfection. From the precision equipment we use to maintain consistency to our curated fragrances designed to enhance every mood and space, HICO Candle Co. is more than a candle company—it’s an experience in quality and timeless design.

Our Founders

Our founders, the creative visionaries behind Hico Mercantile and Green Canoe Outfitters, saw an opportunity to combine their love for home design and fine fragrances with their passion for revitalizing small-town Texas. Driven by a desire to create jobs and breathe new life into their community, they transformed a piece of Hico’s history into a hub of innovation. Today, HICO Candle Co. blends artistry and science to deliver products that are as captivating as the story behind them—bringing a piece of Texas heritage to homes everywhere.
