Meet the People Behind Tenby Candle Co.
A little family business, a lot of passion, and a love for the Welsh coast.
Behind every Tenby Candle Co. candle is a small family team with a shared passion for beautiful fragrances, thoughtful design and creating something special.
Inspired by our love of Tenby and the stunning Pembrokeshire coastline, we started our candle-making journey with a simple idea: to create beautifully scented, hand-poured candles that bring a little warmth and luxury into everyday life.
So, without further ado, meet the team!
Jon | Creative Director
The ideas, the designs and occasionally the organised chaos!
Jon looks after the creative side of Tenby Candle Co., from developing new collections and designing our packaging to bringing the brand's personality to life.
With a love of design, photography and all things creative, he's passionate about making sure our candles look every bit as beautiful as they smell.
Outside the workshop, Jon is happiest catching a wave along the Pembrokeshire coast, working on his VW campervan or watching Formula 1.
He's always dreaming up the next idea for Tenby Candle Co. — although Sam occasionally has to remind him that there's only so much room in the workshop!
Sam | Director & Candle Chandler
The heart of our candle-making journey.
Sam is the creative force behind our hand-poured candles, with a passion for beautiful fragrances, quality ingredients and getting every little detail just right.
From experimenting with new scent combinations to perfecting each candle, Sam takes pride in creating products that are as lovely to give as they are to receive.
When she's not busy in the workshop, you'll probably find her enjoying the fresh sea air, exploring Pembrokeshire's beautiful coastline or taking Luna for a well-earned walk.
For Sam, candle making is about more than fragrance. It's about creating those little moments of comfort, calm and happiness that make a house feel like home.
Luna | Head of Security & Wellbeing
Chief treat tester, beach explorer and unofficial boss.
Every family business needs someone to keep things running smoothly, and at Tenby Candle Co., that's Luna.
Our much-loved black labradoodle takes her responsibilities very seriously, whether that's supervising the team, checking for biscuit opportunities or making sure everyone takes regular breaks.
When she's not on duty, Luna enjoys long walks along the coast, plenty of attention and the occasional disagreement with the postman.
She might not be much help when it comes to pouring candles, but she's an essential part of our little team — and we wouldn't have it any other way.
From Our Family to Your Home
Every candle we create is a little reflection of who we are — our love of beautiful fragrances, our connection to the Welsh coast and our belief that the smallest details can make the biggest difference.
We're incredibly proud of what we're building here at Tenby Candle Co., and we're so grateful to everyone who chooses to support our small business.
Thank you for being part of our journey.
