Companion Candles Launches at Sprouts
PRESS RELEASE — NEWS PROVIDED BY Loren Lewin for Companion Candles
CHICAGO, IL (JULY 2025) — Companion Candles, the pet-safe home fragrance brand inspired by founder Loren Lewin’s senior rescue dog Mylo, is proud to announce its national retail launch with Sprouts Farmers Market.
Starting this month, Companion’s best-selling clean-burning candles will be available in select Sprouts locations across the U.S., bringing their toxin-free, cruelty-free candles to shelves alongside other wellness-focused, mission-driven products.
Each candle is hand-poured in the USA using a coconut-soy wax blend, FSC-certified wood wicks, and premium essential oils—free of phthalates, paraffins, dyes, and over 250 known toxins found in conventional candles. With 50+ hours of burn time and warm, crowd-pleasing scents, Companion Candles are designed to be safe for pets and their people.
“We created Companion to prove you don’t have to choose between cozy and clean,” said Lewin. “Being welcomed into Sprouts—a brand that shares our commitment to transparency and wellness—is such an exciting milestone.”
Companion Candles has been featured on TODAY, Ellen’s 12 Days of Giveaways, and Forbes. The brand also donates a portion of every purchase to animal rescue organizations across the country.
