Ollie

We believe a dog’s health, happiness, and longevity begins with their food — and superior ingredients and cooking techniques lead to the best nutrition. Based on the expertise of pet health authorities, we create the highest quality food in human-grade kitchens with the best ingredients available.

Because for dog people like us, our pups are more than pets. They’re our best friends, our protectors, furry members of our family. They’ve got quirks and character that are unmatched, and they’ve got needs that are unique to them.

Our healthy, all-natural food is perfectly portioned for your dog to provide the nutrients they need and deliver visible results, like shiny coats, great energy, and better digestion.

At Ollie, we see every dog as an individual, and we’re committed to helping them thrive and live as long as canine-ly possible. It makes us a better business, a better company, and above all, better humans. myollie.com

NuLeaf Naturals

Elevate Your Health

NuLeaf Naturals is one of America’s top pioneering hemp companies. Founded by a group of plant medicine aficionados, our vision is to pave the way for a line of cannabinoid wellness products that promote a healthy body and mind.

Helping People & Pets Live a Happier, Healthier Life

Since 2014 NuLeaf Naturals has been committed to creating the world’s highest quality cannabinoid products in their most pure and potent form. Our full spectrum cannabinoid extracts contain no additives and the only ingredient is organic hemp. Our mission is to create premium cannabinoid wellness products we would not only take ourselves but also share with our family and friends.

True Blue Pets

Just like you, we want the best for our pets.

All of us at TrueBlue are devoted to developing products that make our best friends as healthy and happy as they deserve to be. Wellness is as important to a rich full life for pets as it is for human members of our families.

TrueBlue is dedicated to creating products that offer easy-to-use yet super-effective pet care solutions that promote optimal pet health. At the same time, we strive to build strong bonds with our employees, business partners, customers, and the broader community of animal lovers.

We believe that something about being pet parents makes us just a little bit more aware of the environment and how precious the planet is. At TrueBlue we are constantly looking for ways we can be more environmentally conscious and more sustainable.

Our shampoos have always been bio-degradable. You can rinse them down the sink or bathtub and be confident they are safe for the planet.

Our bottles have always been made with recyclable plastic, meaning they could be turned into something else. But at first they were made from “virgin” plastic. In other words, plastic that was newly created to make the bottles.

But now we have switched all our bottles to PCR plastic. PCR stands for “post-consumer resin” which is a fancy way of saying plastic that’s made from recycled plastic. So we’re not putting any new plastic into the world.

Made & Sourced in USA

Pet parents these days want to know more about the products they buy for their "best friends"... they want these products to be just as high quality as the ones they buy for themselves, and they're asking questions like:

Where are they made? What ingredients and materials were used? Can the manufacturer guarantee the highest quality standards?

So we wanted to let you know that all our TrueBlue products are made from organic & botanical ingredients that are 100% sourced and manufactured in the USA.

Bonne et Filou

Some of the best royals in history have had a soft spot for a loyal canine, none more so than famed French King Louis XIV. Indeed, his favorite pups, Bonne and Filou, were living the good life. Louis XIV made sure Versailles was more than just dog-friendly; it was dog heaven.

Bonne hunted by day and Filou lounged until night; they slept in satin sheets and strutted down the Hall of Mirrors in diamond collars, and most extravagant of all - they had their own personal chef.

The royal life chose them and they weren’t going to bark about it.

Jazz Guetta Artist

Artist Jazz Guetta, based in Los Angeles, was born into a multi-cultural family, immersive and supportive of the arts. Jazz attended California Institute of the Arts, studying sculpture and painting. In the following three years he became an apprentice to various renowned artists. Although Jazz has been around art his entire life, Jazz’s own life in art started when he was in an accident that left him temporarily wheelchair bound. When Jazz was released from the hospital and arrived home, his father transformed the living room into a wheelchair accessible studio. Jazz’s restricted movement, obliged his arms to compensate and exaggerate expressing his emotions. Spray paint was the sole medium Jazz desired to paint with; its’ propulsion extended his range of movements, thus allowing him to express farther than any other medium. His large gestural strokes animate the boldness of movement and motion. The technique Jazz developed and absorbed through injury, consists of many overlapping sprays in vibrant and neutral colors, existing on their own, as well as coming together to make something bigger as a whole. The pain Jazz endured cultivated his passion, urging him to abandon all apprenticeships to focus on his ideas. He now stands on his own two feet and has painted murals all over the United States. We were honored to feature Jazz at our event.

B Great

She had seen the research on CBD’s therapeutic benefits, but found the market confusing to navigate as there were so many brands to choose from. As she did her research, she realized that CBD could not only help her father, but it could also help herself with some of the challenges she was experiencing as she got older, such as: staying focused, falling asleep, and soreness throughout her body.

As the former CEO and CMO of several nationally recognized brands, she decided to put her business acumen to use, tapping leading experts in the CBD industry to create a safe, predictable, well-tested product line that is transparent and consistent.

She wanted to feel safe entering this often confusing space. Now, with her company, she wants you to have that same level of confidence.

That was it…..The “up-lifting” revelation where it all began. Setting out with her best chest forward, Boob Glue® was conceived.

With such an ambitious goal, it’s no surprise Dawn found success with her formula for the perfect chest lift. Using FDA approved ingredients, Boob Glue® Gravity Defying Adhesive instantly enhances the appearance of the breasts by keeping them positioned exactly where you want them adding extra lift, support or cleavage to your bra or braless attire.

Elixicure

Elixicure started because of the love of two sons for their mother and wanting to create a natural pain relief product that could make a difference in people’s lives. Elixicure founders, Eyal and Yaniv Kotler’s mother was suffering from chronic pain and caught in an endless cycle of being over-prescribed harmful drugs. As strong proponents of plant-based lifestyles, the Kotler brothers sought out high quality and organic pain relief options without chemical additives to help their mother, but found that none existed.

As a result, the two brothers created the Elixicure natural pain relief brand. Their mission is to help and enhance people’s lives by making the highest quality all-natural pain relief solutions that customers trust.

With plant based ingredients and instant pain relief, Elixicure will ensure you’ll be back on your feet in no time!

Scotch Porter Brand

Transformation is a powerful concept. It’s the feeling you get when the barber finishes a fresh cut, removes the cape, brushes you off and hands you the mirror to reveal the cleanest version of you. That feeling is what inspired CEO, Calvin Quallis, to quit his cushy corporate job to follow his passion for making people feel their best. He started small, opening a barber shop in his neighborhood just as his mother had done when he was a kid. From his kitchen, he began experimenting with botanicals and other ingredients that have NOT been clinically shown to be toxic or carcinogenic, creating products to solve the problems his customers talked about.

It’s with that same spirit the company began to continue to build out MULTI-purpose, handmade better-for-you grooming products; solutions to the real issues men face daily. They developed products to enhance the everyday guy’s experience. They understand how painful ingrown hairs are. And how men want their skin to be moisturized without being greasy.

They’re married to the idea that men should be able to take care of themselves and not have to break the bank. That they shouldn’t have to use products packed with harmful chemicals just to look and feel like a boss.

Kaene Wine

Kaena was launched in 2001 to showcase Mikael’s deep passion for Grenache. Kaena is a boutique winery that sources from Tierra Alta Vineyard, La Presa Vineyard, and Larner Vineyard in the Ballard Canyon AVA , primarily. Mikael, who is part Hawaiian and was raised on the Oahu shores, uses a shortened version of his given name for the brand – Kaena – which means “potential for greatness”.

That “greatness” is evident in the wines – in 2006 Wine Spectator named Mikael one of the top 10 new Rhone producers. Known by his peers and fans as “The Grenache King” – Kaena produces 2000 cases of Rhone & other varieties with an emphasis on Grenache.

Mikael credits his success, growth and nickname to his passion for making truly handcrafted wines. He also credits his wife, Sally, for her design and management of the Kaena Tasting Rooms located in Los Olivos and Solvang, California.
