About Us
Welcome to Beelite Inc.
At Beelite Candles, we create handmade, all-natural beeswax candles and provide high-quality candle-making supplies for makers of all experience levels. From pure, pressure-filtered beeswax to premium wicks, molds, and tools, we serve both those who enjoy finished candles and those who craft their own.
Founded in 2002 by the Trescott family, fourth-generation beekeepers, our business is rooted in a deep understanding of beeswax—from its source at the hive to the finished product.
We believe candles should be functional, beautiful, and naturally made. Every candle is hand-poured with care, and every supply we offer is chosen with the same commitment to quality.
Our Story
A Letter from the Owner
In March 2002, my wife and I set out to bring high-quality, all-natural beeswax candles to the public at a fair price. As fourth-generation beekeepers, our family has spent years working with bees and understanding beeswax from its source to its final form.
Over time, Beelite Candles grew beyond finished candles. Today, we also supply beeswax and candle-making materials to makers, small businesses, and hobbyists across the country. From raw beeswax to finished candles, our goal has always remained the same: quality you can trust.
As a family-owned business, we take pride in what we make and in the people we serve. Thank you for being part of our journey.
Sincerely,
Tim Trescott
Our Journey
Two Brands, One Shared Purpose
Beelite Candles and Beeswax Candle Co. began independently, but both were founded with a shared purpose: creating high-quality, all-natural candles using pure beeswax and sustainable materials.
In 2021, Beelite acquired Beeswax Candle Co. and brought its legacy from Lynchburg, Virginia, to our facility in Morganton, North Carolina. The two businesses initially operated side by side before being fully unified under Beelite Inc. in 2025.
Bringing the brands together combines decades of candle-making experience and allows us to serve our customers through one seamless shopping experience. Although the names have come together, our commitment remains unchanged: pure beeswax, dependable craftsmanship, and products made with care.
“Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.”
— Matthew 6:10 KJV
