Founded in 1984 in the Maine wilderness by Burt Shavitz and Roxanne Quimby, Burt's Bees began as a small business selling handcrafted beeswax candles before expanding into natural personal care. Quimby, an artist, and Shavitz, a local beekeeper, built the brand on a philosophy of utilizing nature's most effective ingredients. Acquired by The Clorox Company in 2007, the brand has maintained its core ethos, operating with a commitment to accessible, earth-friendly products.
