Gen Z Business Spotlight: CAVO

Check out the curated candled brand
Gen Z Business Spotlight: CAVO
By Kenyatta Victoria · Updated May 1, 2024

In the era of self-care and soft life, candles are the perfect physical representation of the trend. So many help clear our minds with their authentic scents and elements.

We introduce CAVO Candles, a soy, non-toxic, eco-friendly product for our next Gen Z business spotlight. Did we also mention that the candles come with a personalized playlist?

Founded by a sister duo, Femi and Naomi Adeyemo, the brand is for us and by us with every curated scent. Girls United caught up with co-founder Naomi Adeyemo about the dream turned reality with CAVO.

“[We] both have eclectic personal styles,” Adeyemo told GU. “However, when searching for clean candles, we didn’t see ourselves or our style reflected in eco-conscious spaces. We believe eco-friendly products don’t always need to be minimal or boring, so we made our own.”

Are you a new customer looking for a new candle to add to your collection? We’ve got you covered on which candle fits your style.

Direct Deposit $24

Imagine it’s payday, and you feel great about the check that hit your account. Light up the candle scent Direct Deposit to match that abundant energy. “The scent is matcha, jasmine, lemongrass and musk,” Adeyemo said. “It’s the perfect candle to light when the check clears, and the invoice is paid on time.”

After A Good Cry $24

“Since each candle marks moments, it’s exciting to see people gift them to each other to mark different life events,” Adeyemo told GU. “[The] After A Good Cry candle [can be] sent to your homegirl going through a breakup.” This candle helps the girlies with their feelings with a perfectly curated playlist.
