Beeswax Candles to $925M Empire by Roxanne & Burt

One of the most bittersweet billion-dollar exits ever. 💔💰

In 1984, Roxanne Quimby met beekeeper Burt Shavitz selling honey from his truck. Spotting unused beeswax, she turned it into candles—then lip balm, then a skincare empire. Together, they built Burt’s Bees from nothing.

But success strained their partnership. Roxanne bought Burt out for just $130 Kanda Maine cabin. Years later, she sold the company to Clorox for $925M—while Burt lived simply till his death in 2015.

A story of genius, grit… and the price of growth.
